Sunburnt Through The Glass

(album: Futures - 2016)

It's only when I turn away
Only when I'm near the edge
Look around and see where I should be instead
You can think you've got it all wrapped up
Then you feel the threads unwind
There's nothing I can do
Now it's too late to realize
Got you on my mind

Sunburnt through the glass
Oh, you've got me beat
I saw the light, but I missed the heat
I thought I had all that I wanted
Sunburnt through the glass
Oh, it's gone so deep
Why'd it take me this long to see
How did I blow all those traps?

All I wanna do is get back
Try to find, that light that I know went black
The beach has started closing off
The evening tide is coming in
Trying to catch that train and call in one last drink
Enough of trying to shake the dark
Enough of trying to trick the light
I could really do with letting someone else decide
Where to spend the night

Sunburnt through the glass
Oh, you got me deep
I saw the light but I missed the heat
I thought I had all that I wanted
Sunburnt through the glass
Oh, it's gone so deep
Why'd it take me this long to see
How did I blow all those traps?

Don't tell me it's too late

Sunburnt through the glass
Oh, you got me deep
I saw the light but I missed the heat
I thought I had all that I wanted
Sunburnt through the glass
Oh, you got me deep
Why'd it take me so long to see
How did I blow all those traps?

Tell me if you can hold on, hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
Driving straight back through the night
Tell me if you can hold on, hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
Flashing headlights in my eyes
