Face The Sun – Ari Hest

You’ve taken the bait, too often to count
Followed the feeling, you swore to surmount
It leads you to places, you don’t want to go
Just at the edge, looking below

See past present
One and done
Lift your head and
Face the sun

You’re older now than you’d like to admit
You’ve run out of lazy, the flame’s been lit
The world doesn’t know, nor does she care
That’s why when you knock, nobody’s there
To undo the tension, to bring on release
You ask the commotion inside you to cease

See past present
One and done
Lift your head and
Face the sun
See past present
One and done
Lift your head and
Face the sun

A fair resolution may not ever come
A piece of your life uncomfortably numb
But you must resist the powerful urge
To blow up the whole for one to emerge

See past present
One and done
Lift your head and
Face the sun
See past present
One and done
Lift your head and
Face the sun
