The Sun - Demo

After school, walking home
Fresh dirt under my fingernails, and
I can smell hot asphalt
Cars screech to a halt to let me pass
And I cannot remember what life was like through photographs
And trying to recreate images life gives us from our past

Sometimes it's a sad song

But I cannot forget, refuse to regret
So glad I met you, and
Take my breath away, make every day
Worth all of the pain that I've gone through
And mama, I've been crying
'Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battle's almost won
And we're only several miles from the sun
Oh-whoa-whoa, yeah

I'm moving on down my street
See people I won't ever meet
I think of her, take a breath
Feel the beat in the rhythm of my steps

And sometimes it's a sad song, oh

I cannot forget, refuse to regret
So glad I met you, and
Take my breath away, make every day
Worth all of the pain that I've gone through
Mama, I've been crying
'Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battle's almost won
And we're only several miles from the sun

The rhythm of her conversation
The perfection of her creation
The sex she slipped into my coffee
The way she felt when she first saw me
Hate to love and love to hate her
Like a broken record player
Back and forth and here and gone
And on and on and on and on

I cannot forget, refuse to regret
So glad I met you, and
Take my breath away, make every day
Worth all of the pain that I have gone through
Mama, I've been crying
'Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battle's almost won
And we're only several miles from the sun

Yeah, oh
Several miles from the sun, oh
