Sunlight (feat. Years and Years) [Radio Edit] - The Magician

I was a misanthrope on the end of a rope I spent twenty years, six years on dope Taking a piss while giving up hope I lived a lifetime, six years on dope I was a human trashcan (shortening my lifespan) Live fast, die tan (I think that was the plan) Saving all my money for a one way ticket to Afghanistan (yeah) I was ezoobezon drunk (strung out on junk) Live fast, die punk (I thought I was sunk) From gin swillin' and fish tank penicillin I was a moron bro with impetigo A pleased as fuck Dog Patch Wino Casual sex and herpes complex Now I'm on interferon and valtrex I was a child adult, a walking insult Every shot got more difficult I was a teenage trashbin (a breathing mannequin) A caustic cause (who must've loved suffering) Do pinhole eyes romanticize heroin? I was a moron bro, a circus sideshow A dying slow Dog Patch Wino

Pushing thru the market square So many mothers sighing News had just come over, We had five years left to cry in News guy wept and told us Earth was really dying Cried so much his face was wet Then I knew he was not lying I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s My brain hurt like a warehouse It had no room to spare I had to cram so many things To store everything in there And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people I never thought I'd need so many people A girl my age went off her head Hit some tiny children If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheel of a Cadillac A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest And a queer threw up at the sight of that I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour Drinking milk shakes cold and long Smiling and waving and looking so fine Don't think you knew you were in this song And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there Your face, your race, the way that you talk I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk We've got five years, stuck on my eyes We've got five years, what a surprise We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot We've got five years, that's all we've got

I didn't feel the change, but don't feel the same I never knew a shift was happening The scenery just seemed to be stuck on, stuck on Stuck on repeat All of my memories are just a colorful blur Feels like I'm falling, falling Falling in reverse In the art of war (in the art of war) What are we fighting for? We go from silence to sirens Without a space between We are a violent virus Without a remedy In a wild lust, we've opened up A whole new world set to self-destruct My innocence just seemed to be slipping, slipping Slipping away All that we've managed to make Is just a comfortable cage Oh God, I've gotta get out, get out Get out of this place In the art of war (in the art of war) What are we fighting for? We go from silence to sirens Without a space between We are violent virus Without a remedy Art, war What are we fighting for? Art, war What are we dying for? Art, war What are we fighting for? Art, war What are we dying for? We go from silence to sirens Without a space between We are violent virus Without a remedy We are violent virus Without a remedy

Heart beats fast Colours and promises How to be brave? How can I love when I'm afraid to fall? Watching you stand alone All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow One step closer I have died every night waiting for you Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more Time stands still Beauty in all she is I will be brave I will not let anything take away What's standing in front of me Every breath, every hour has come to this One step closer I have died every day waiting for you Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more And all along I believed I would find you Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more I love you I'd love you for a thousand I'd love you for a thousand years So in love So in love One step closer One step closer I have died every night waiting for you Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more And all along I believed I would find you Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you for a thou-thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more

It's getting late Why you gotta be beside me? Watching, needing, wanting me? I'm afraid, don't be I'm afraid, don't be I'm afraid, don't be I'm afraid, don't be I'm afraid Don't be, don't... Lila I know it's getting late, and I'm struggling to let go Although there's distance between us, there's no place I'd rather be I owe you some hospitality, and it comes so naturally Promise, I just need some more time If you can bear with me When last did we feel this close together? Chasing sunsets in California Don't make me wait, babe, it's been forever Don't take forever It's been forever Don't take forever It's been forever Trust me, I'm starting to realize And look beyond my fears Sun keeps on turning to twilight Baby, we don't have long I can't keep my hands off you All night, all my love You say it's getting too late Baby, don't be afraid When last did we feel this close together? Chasing sunsets in California Don't make me wait, babe, it's been forever Don't take forever It's been forever Don't take forever It's been forever Giddy up, girl, best I can do Go follow where the wind blows, mmm Sometimes, we all feel hollow My heart, girl, you can borrow, mmm Please don't make this all about you Please don't make this all about you Please don't make this all about you Please don't make this all about you
