Running From The Sun Lyrics by Dylan Gossett

Part of what’s still left to say is always left alone
Swear you wanted all the fame, the glory, all the gold
The words that you say always seem to leave a hole
And the fire that you think you’ve built is slowly running low

And a part of you still in the fold, a part of you unknown
You hear the voice that’s calling you, but you leave it all alone
Your hands, they walk like soldiers in this place you call a home
But they’ll leave you stranded, hopeless in this holy battle zone

So don’t run from the sun and then ask me why you’re cold
You said you put your love all in then tell me that you fold
It’s not in what you see or hear, but more in what’s untold
You said you got a hold on it, but you’re slowly letting go
No, you’re slowly letting go

Well, the light that lives inside you, dear, is shining from within
And you’ll never let it out as long as it’s trapped inside your skin
Your screams are calling out, but you’ll never hear a sound
And the way your mind keeps running is gonna wear you right on out
Right on out

So don’t run from the sun and then ask me why you’re cold
You said you put your love all in then tell me that you fold
It’s not in what you see or hear, but more in what’s untold
You said you got a hold on it, but you’re slowly letting go
No, you’re slowly letting go

One day when we’re just skin and bones and we’re left without a soul
Your face will whittle in the ground, your body will run cold
You ran the course, and you chose the path you chose
So now that you’re leaving, dear, which way will you go?
Oh, which way will you go?
