We who live on the ground must reach for the sun.
Equal parts frustration, isolation and inspiration. And coffee.
Story behind the song
light of day, you greet me with your promises
as I wake, I'm showered with the lies you tell me
as the rain erodes the path I must follow
the weather won't change at all tomorrow
and then I head out into the storm in another day of aimless wandering
wish I'd discover a reason to go or stay
I look for you in the amber sky as there's nothing more to see here
and I know, despite my will, there is no way
and I reach for you
my eyes burning, pools of tears and morning dew
as I try to stand
you see me falling but you'll never take my hand
I let go, as branches part with withered leaves, of the thought
that one day I would rise up to you
through the wind and deafening thunder here below
the weather won't change at all tomorrow
another walk on a winding road paved with hope and trust and good intention
too bad I'll never believe a word you say
the light I see becomes insincere, my desire is corroded and I know, despite my will, there is no way
and then I head out into the storm in another day of aimless wandering
wish I'd discover a reason to go or stay
I look for you in the amber sky as there's nothing more to see here
and I know, despite my will, there is no way
