lyrics

Sometimes sunshine leaves me blind.
So I close my eyes and take a nap.
When the day dreams, my eyes become accustomed to the light.
I've been waiting for this moment for sometime 'cause some time is what I need to get back up on my feet.
I've been sleeping. I've been dreaming. I wanna do something.
Sometimes sunshine leaves me blind.
So I close my eyes and take a nap.
How can I make use of all this newfound time on my hands?
Perhaps I'll write a song about all my trouble with my sleep schedule.
I've been trying yet defeated to do something that is needed.
Like soaking up the rays.
Like breathing in fresh air.
Like living without care.
Like crossing the state lines.
Like seeing the skylines.
Like losing track of time.
Sometimes sunshine leaves me blind.
So I close my eyes and take a nap.
