Lyrics
I used to hate the sun because it shone on everything I'd done
Made me feel that all that I had done
Was overfill the ashtray of my life
All my achievements in days of yore range from pathetic to piss-poor
But all that's gonna change
Because here comes sunrise
Yeah, here's your sunrise
I used to hide from the sun
Tried to live my whole life underground
Why'd you have to rise & ruin all my fun?
Just turned over
Closed the curtains on the day. But here comes sunrise
Yeah, here's your sunrise when you've been awake all night long
And you feel like crashing out at dawn
But you've been awake all night, so why should you crash out at dawn?
