Verse 1:
Shake me down
Not alot of
people left around
Who know's now
Softly laying on
the ground oh-oohh
Not alot of people left
around oh-oohh oh-oohh
Verse 2:
In my life I have seen
People walking to the seat
Just to find memory
Plagued my constant misery
Their eyes cast down
Fixed upon the ground
Their eyes cast down
Chorus 1:
I'll keep my eyes
fixed on the sun
Verse 3:
Shake me down
Cut my hair on
a silver cloud
Broken sound
Softly laying on the
ground oh-oohh
Not alot of people left
around oh-oohh oh-oohh
Verse 4:
In my past bitter sweet
Found no love between the sheets
Take the blood broken dreams
Lonely times indeed
With eyes cast down
Fixed upon the ground
With eyes cast down
Chorus 2:
I'll keep my eyes
fixed on the sun
Turn back no it's
time for me to let go
Way down had to
find a place to lay low
Lamp shade turning
right into a lamp post

Bridge:
Walk around the corner
Never saw it coming still
I try to make a move
It almost stopped me from belief
I don't wanna know the future
I'm like rolling thunder
Even on a cloudy day
Even on a cloudy day
Even on a cloudy day
Even on a cloudy day
Even on a cloudy day
Even on a cloudy day
Even on a cloudy day
