Duncan Sheik In The Absence Of The Sun Lyrics

In The Absence Of The Sun Lyrics

For all the good you say it does 

It seems no better when you had your say


You may believe its just because 

Words get colder when you've gone
away 

I thought I understood 

What I was to you 



I
don't want to feel this way no 

I don't want to say I'm just a friend 

I don't want to wait around here 

Cause you don't want to 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 lay the ground beneath
to doubt you 

Was it ever, girl, something you could hold 



I
don't want to feel this way no 

I don't want to say I'm just a friend 

I don't want to wait around here 

Cause you don't want to feel no pain
again 

We just lie about it 

As we become shadows of ourselves 



I don't want to look away 

I don't want to 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 



I
don't want to feel this way no 

I don't want to say I'm just a friend 

I don't want to wait around here 

Cause you don't want to feel no pain
again 

We just lie about it 

As we become shadows of ourselves 



I don't want to look away 

I don't want to 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
