Lyrics
Verse 1
Now you see me ? now I?m fleeting like a dream
What you thought, and what you got was not what it seemed
So accepted ? so respected, so they say
The presentation of a reputation carefully played
So convincing I believe myself
Sick inside of being someone else
Waiting for the sun
Verse 2
Slick and easy, freeze the feeling something?s wrong
Mercy making is for the taking ?till it?s gone
So afraid this mirage I?ve made will be exposed
But lies that cover all the others can?t be controlled
Hush my conscience, you?re not welcome here
I?m not asking what you think my dear
Chorus
Waiting for the sun to shine
Down on these shadows where I hide
Waiting for the sun
Verse 3
Help me find my way back to that place
Where I felt the sunlight on my face
Chorus 2
Waiting for the sun to shine
Down onthese shadows where I hide
Waiting for the sun to shine
Burning away this flesh of mine
Waiting for the sun to shine
Waiting for the sun
