When I was younger
I'd stay in the shadows
How I longed to be
In the sun
I could never share my feelings
I could never share my thoughts
I couldn't in the shadows, but I could
In the sun
I just sat and watched
Never interfering
Longing to be with those who were
In the sun
And then one day I got there
I left the darkness of the shadows
I thought that life was perfect
In the sun
I shared all my feelings
I shared all my thoughts
I thought everyone liked me
In the sun
Everything was perfect
But then a sad day came
I wasn't in the shadows, and I wasn't
In the sun
Darkness all around
No sun, no shadows, nothing
My life was taken away
In the sun
How I long for the shadows
The shadows I used to know
It was perfect in the shadows, not
In the sun
And now I sit alone and broken
No one to comfort me, no one at all
How I wish I never was
In the sun.
