Spaces in Sunshine

A SONG!!! My first. I'll be singing it on stage this Sept.



Somewhere in the sunshine
I found my faith again,
and though the walls are gray and faded,
and we're all tainted by our sins,
the walls can be refinished,
and we can be reborn,
so don't let the hardships
paint your face forlorn.

[chorus]
We all need some space for breathing,
some time for ourselves,
a place to call our own;
don't even tell the world you're leaving,
just disappear from view,
take some time alone.

We were made for heaven,
though first we go through hell,
but trials only brighten
the fires they don't quell.
Our scars don't make us who we are,
they're proof of where we've been,
so appreciate the moment,
and feel the light sink in.

[chorus]
I think I need some space for breathing,
some time for myself,
a place to call my own;
the world won't even know I'm leaving,
I'll just disappear from view,
to take some time alone.

If there were room
to take you with,
I'd show you the stars
and teach you bliss.
But this spaceship
was built for one,
so I will fly alone
into the sun.
