Trufax #12712: "Sunflowers" is actually my favorite song.

In honor of Music Mondays (which I never do anymore), here are lyrics to my favorite-at-the-moment Everclear song....


You seem to make the same mistakes everyday;
Sometimes it's hard to open your eyes.
You want to be the only cake on the table;
Yeah, you say you don't like surprises.
You want to find a pretty place you can stay;
You say you just don't want to live in LA...

I just want to be where the sun shines down;
I just want to be where the sun shines down.
I just want to be with you.

Oh, I really hate the way you push me away;
I do not like it when you shut me out.
You say "I love you but I really don't know you;
I want to change you but I don't know how."
I want to leave when it gets ugly and cold;
I want to leave but I have no where to go...

I just want to be where the sun shines down;
Yeah, I just want to be where the sun shines down on a beautiful life.
I just want to find a beautiful life.
I want to be where the sun shines down;
I just want to find a beautiful life.

I don't care where we go, I don't care what we do.

You seem to make the same mistakes all the time;
Sometimes it's not too hard to understand why.
You say you hate the things you have done;
Yeah, you have been running with your back to the sun.
You want to find a place you don't have to hide;
You say you're just happy to be alive...

I just want to be where the sun shines down;
Yeah, I just want to be where the sun shines down.
I just want to be where the sun shines down on a beautiful life.
I just want to find a beautiful life...

I don't care where we go; I don't care what we do,
as long as I can be with you.
I just want to be with you...


Honestly? Change "LA" to "Syracuse" and you have the story of my life right now. When I can't put into words how I'm feeling, Art Alexakis shows up and tells me.

I wish I knew where this was heading...
