click the brightness up on the sun
brighter brighter warmer
glowin faster to white
but a cloud, drown it out
draain it back, back to gray
suck it up like a straw
brighter brighter warmer
i exist alongside
but a cloud, drown it out
drain it back, back to gray
drown it out with a cloud
and every black night i repeat:
"remember it! remember this absurdity!"
and every yellow morning
disappointment's such a shame!
i wake up dumb, just the same.
the clouds always sit the same
suck it in, toughen up!
grinning, spinning my luck,
flowin out from my pen
scriblett out, jot it down
drain me back, back to gray
drown me out with a cloud
