there is nowhere left to hide

there is nothing to be done

no people to be saved

no pets we've never named



40 miles from the sun



as darkness craves the mind

we come undone without our pride

no time on earth to come

all the pleasures just begun



40 miles from the sun



in our coats beneath the layers

wash my skin of all the hate

we should sleep late

everything just kind of grates



40 miles from the sun



i need to lose to make it right

i'll confront the stars tonight

i will babble i will bite

you'll never know how much you shine



40 miles from the sun
