Verse 1
I keep my head up just to fake the high
The sun hangs heavy like a judge in the sky
Every hour burns but it leaves no trace
Just another bruise that I wear on my face
Pre-Chorus
And I feel the clock tick like a loaded gun
Waiting on the moment when the damage is done
Chorus
Does it all fall apart when the sun goes down?
When the light runs out, do I run out too?
If the dark takes over, does it take me now?
I don’t know the answer… and that scares me more than the truth
Verse 2
The quiet crawls in like a thief through the door
Steals all the warmth I thought I had before
I hold onto daylight like it owes me a fight
But I’m losing the war when it turns into night
Pre-Chorus
And the shadows talk loud when the world goes numb
Saying things that I pray never fall from my tongue
Chorus
Does it all fall apart when the sun goes down?
When the light runs out, do I run out too?
If the dark takes over, does it take me now?
I don’t know the answer… and that scares me more than the truth
Bridge
Maybe night is the mirror I’m too scared to see
Maybe day is just mercy covering me
If hope is a pulse, dusk slows the beat
And I’m asking the sky to not let go of me
Breakdown (rough / screamed-but-melodic)
Is this a warning or the end of the thread?
Is night gonna take what I can’t kill in my head?
Final Chorus
Does it all fall apart when the sun goes down?
When the light runs out, do I run out too?
If the dark takes over, does it take me now?
I don’t know the answer… and that scares me more than the truth
Outro
Sun drops low…
I brace for the sound
Still wondering if I make it
When the sun goes down
