lyrics

Why should I put in my time? Cross my Ts, dot my Is
Paying dues is the stuff of fairy tales
See the world through apathetic eyes
Love is useless when I die
Why does it matter if I fail?
A cigarette burns in my chest
Breathe so deep, no need to keep my lungs intact
Right on track
You tied your heart to a string
You did all these silly things and yet

The sun will rise again
It happens oh oh over and oh oh over 'cause it's not the end
Yeah the sun will rise again
And you're standing on the edge of the rocks
January shock
Too stunned to talk

Are you terrified now? Gotta make it work somehow
You blew it all in the last seven years
Thought you were safe, you knew your fate
Took it all, put it down on seventeen
You tied your heart to a string
Told yourself these silly things and yet

The sun will rise again
It happens oh oh over and oh oh over 'cause it's not the end
Yeah the sun will rise again
And you're standing on the edge of the rocks

So whatcha gonna do?
You called it quits too soon, oh
Instead of burning out
You're gonna fade away, not sorry now

And yes the sun will rise again
It happens oh oh over and oh oh over 'cause it's not the end
Yeah the sun will rise again
And you're standing on the edge of the rocks
January shock
January shock
January shock
January shock
