In the Absence of Sun - Duncan Sheik

For all the good you say it does

It seems no better when you had your say

You may believe and it’s just because

The words get colder when you’re gone away

I thought I understood

What I was to you

I don’t wanna feel this way, no

I don’t wanna say I’m just a friend

I don’t wanna wait around here

'Cos you don’t wanna feel no pain again

We just lie about it

As we become shadows of ourselves

Some may fear committed lives

I sure am one of them, without you

Does it come to you as some surprise?

I laid the ground beneath to doubt you

Was it ever girl

Something you could hold?

I don’t wanna feel this way, no

I don’t wanna say I’m just a friend

I don’t wanna wait around here

'Cos you don’t wanna feel no pain again

We just lie about it

As we become shadows of ourselves

I don’t wanna look away

I don’t wanna be the one denied

It ain’t no fault of mine

Someone, somewhere told you lies

But we don’t talk about it

We just become shadows of ourselves

We don’t talk about it

We just become shadows of ourselves

I don’t wanna feel this way, no

I don’t wanna say I’m just a friend

I don’t wanna wait around here

'Cos you don’t wanna feel no pain again

We just lie about it

As we become shadows of ourselves

I don’t wanna look away

I don’t wanna be the one denied

It ain’t no fault of mine

Someone, somewhere told you lies

We don’t talk about it

We just become shadows of ourselves

We don’t talk about it

We just become shadows of ourselves
