Sunrise, Sunset, Sunrise, Sunset

Swiftly go the days

Sunrise, Sunset, you wake up then you undress

It always is the same

A sunrise and a sunset

You are lying while you confess

Keep trying to explain

The sunrise and the sun sets

You realise and then you forget

What you have been trying to retain

But everybody know

It's all about the things

That get stuck inside of your head

Like the songs your room mate sings

Or a vision of her body

As she stretches out on your bed

And she raised her hands in the air

Asked you, 'When was the last time

You looked in a mirror?

Because you have changed

Yeah, you have changed.'

Sunrise, Sunset

You are hopeful then you regret

The circle never breaks

With each sunrise and a sunset

There's a change of heart or address

Is there nothing that remains?

For a sunrise or a sunset

You are manic or you're depressed

Will you ever feel OK?

It's a sunrise and a sunset

Your lover is an actress

Did you really think she'd stay?

For a sunrise or a sunset

You're either coming or you just left

But you're always on the way

Towards a sunrise or a sunset

A scribble or a sonnet

They are really just the same

To the sunrise and the sunset

The master and his servant

Have exactly the same fate

It's a sunrise and a sunset

From a cradle to a casket

There is no way to escape

The sunrise and the sunset

Hold your sadness like a puppet

Keep putting on the play

But everything you do

Is leading to the point

Where you just won't know what to do

And at that moment you may laugh

But there is something there

Who will be laughing louder than you

So it's true, the trick is complete

You have become everything you said you never would be

You're a fool! You're a fool!

Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset

The sunrise and the sunset
