Lyrics

quiet walls sputter yes
rolling tears of pain
must i go into your hiding room
using your loss to gain

walking in the sun
i never fear the light
walking in the sun
i never fear

quiet confusion haunts me still
my will can't reign
must i go into your hiding room
using your loss to gain

walking in the sun
i never fear the light
walking in the sun
il know that i never fear
walking in the sun
i never fear the light
walking in my sun
i know that i never fear
