Cameron McCurdy - Stare at the Sun Lyrics

Legacy means only as much as the extent to which people care
It's not about the quantity
Dappled sun highlights the spines of each leaf, revealing the green underneath
It's not like you're the chosen one

And I hope you associate me
With the burning sensation occuring in your retinas when you stare at the sun
I see milky sea and your dead lungs

But when I go to bed I'll sleep with one eye open
And when I go to bed I'll sleep with my feet on the ground
When I go to bed I won't sleep at all

Who am I to say everybody dies alone
When all we really know is what is in our phone?
Who am I to say everybody dies alone
When all we really know is what is in our phone?

How many tries does it take?
I've slowly learnt what it means
How many tries does it take to delete a past mistake?
I've slowly learnt what it means to be one in a set of three
I'm delegating time to friends who'll be dead in several years
But though they breathe, I won't see
How many tries does it take to delete a past mistake?
I've slowly learnt what it means to be one in a set of three
Delegating time for friends who'll be dead in several years
And though they breathe, I won't see
