Lyrics:The Bright Side

The bright side is blinding our eyes And the sound keeps ringin', ringin' The bright side is just a white lie That the crowd keeps singin', singin' You are a busy bee You are a busy bee Sunshine, sitting on a pavement crack Everyone was staring back But you didn't mind Sunshine, futile were our defenses Backwards ran your sentences Until reeled the mind Next what's fear And silence in Wait just all we'll then Upside-down everything Turning done you're when The bright side is blinding our eyes And the sound keeps ringin', ringin' The bright side is just a white lie That the crowd keeps singin', singin' You are a busy bee You are a busy bee Back then, fighting with the permanent Pushing through the sediment Till we lost the trail Back then, those days felt like house arrest Half-awake and self-possessed We thought we'd prevail Among the rain And lights I saw The figure "5" in gold On a red firetruck That's what I was told The bright side is blinding our eyes And the sound keeps ringin', ringin' The bright side is just a white lie That the crowd keeps singin', singin' The bright side is blinding our eyes And the sound keeps ringin', ringin' |
