Lyrics

Well, the sun’s beaming down before the little boy’s eyes
Feel like I’m living in a joke, and I am losing my mind
If maybe one of my desires weren’t so out of sight
I’d become more like them, and the darkness would be light

For the apples that I wanted have all disappeared, And the ones that remain try to keep things in gear
But from morning ‘till evening, they’re learning how to fly
And I’m always left below, always knew the reason why

CHORUS:
There’s the way we’ve become and the way we should be,
and the choice that I make never works out for me
You can hide in the shadows, or try to run away
but I’ll still be waiting at the end of the day
If the world that we live in were truly moving up,
I’d be everything I want, and you’d never get stuck
You can hide in the shadows, or try to run away
but I’ll still be waiting at the end of the day

Well, you gave me your word, then you had a change of plans.
And you left me in despair, with my face in my hands.
Well, I just want to know, was it worth it in the end?
Was there a smile on your face, when you lost yourself a friend?

For the apples that I wanted have all disappeared,
And the ones that remain try to keep things in gear
But from morning ‘till evening, they’re learning how to fly
And I’m always left below, always knew the reason why

(CHORUS)

Making others feel happy will always leave me sad.
Is there such a thing as love
or have I truly gone mad?
Hide in the shadows, try to run away
I will be waiting at the end of the day
It was never your fault,
I’m the one who was blind
Can’t you see if there’s a place
for my heart in your mind?
You only live once;
won’t you come out to play?
‘Cause I’ll still be waiting at the end of the day
