I'm not the only one
I left it in the
Don't try too hard to think
Who'd rather go blind
I'm staring at the sun
Waves that leave me out of reach
I'm not just deaf and dumb
'Cause those that can't do
It's going to get stickier too
Let's get under cover
There's an insect in your ear
Stuck together with God's glue
Don't think at all
If you took a look inside
Belonged to me
But you never really
If you took a look inside
Armour plated suits and ties
And those that can't do
I'm nearly great but there's something missing
Breaking on your back like a beach
Staring at the sun
God is good but will he listen
You're not the only one
Staring at the sun
Daddy just won't say goodbye
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
Referee won't blow the whistle
Not just deaf and dumb
Creeps a crawling over me
I'm staring at the sun
Intransigence is all around
To the ones
Will we ever live in peace?
Afraid of what you'll find
Often have to
Afraid of what you'd find
You want to see what the scratching brings
If you scratch it won't disappear
Who's happy to go blind
Staring at the sun
It's been a long hot summer
Afraid of what you'd find
Not sucking on my thumb
In the shade of a willow tree
If you stepped back inside
Duty free area
Military still in town
Staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
I'm not the only one
Over me and over you
Not the only one
Often have to preach
