lirik lagu witness – sunburn
well is that cloud painted on the sky?
or is it simply where the canvas is blank?
i realize as i stand at the banks
of the river at the feet of the city
where i can see the bigger picture
and it triggers something deep within me
that would be the backdrop
home to a million little cafes
with lattes and laptops
and that’s when i noticed it
people only seem to leave their homes
to float in daydreams and postpone the loneliness
but sunshine don’t mean sunburn
and a stone is only a stone if you’re gonna leave them unturned
some learn just a little quicker than others
you’ve gotta live like you never knew the definition of it
and sunshine don’t mean sunburn
but a stone is only a stone if you’re gonna leave them unturned
some learn just a little quicker than others
you’ve gotta love like you never knew the definition of it
i met a girl at the jersey sh-r-
that wore clip on earrings and stumbled in high heels
and no i wasn’t sober when she tapped me on the shoulder
but i told her that i thought her smile wasn’t quite real
and it must have been the drinks
cause i ain’t that smooth
well it could have been the ink
she had a few tattoos
but dude it’s hard to find a woman at a cover band bar
that prefers a conversation to another man’s car
and maybe all she wanted was a cigarette
or may she was just a shadow in my drunk dream
she gave a name and a number that wasn’t hers
said we all got a shadow moonlighting as a sunbeam
they tell me sleep is the cousin of death
so i would guess that a dream is the daughter of sleep
sometimes i wonder whether witness even exists
or if it’s just a dream that was caught in the beat
they’re like kid, you got it going on
tell me that my flow is strong
now i’m in the bas-m-nt til the break of dawn
seeking validation from the hip hop heads
like the praise and adulation is the only thing i got left
but on the surface the water appears still
unaffected by the children skipping stones on it’s skin
sometimes i bet it wishes it could just disappear
like a feather in the city being blown by the wind
we all wanna disappear sometimes
but we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines
