Title: âSunshine on the Graveâ Verse 1 You kept handing me sunlight Like it could bleach out the damage Like a pretty little slogan Could outrun all the panic Every time I came undone Youâd paste a halo on the hurt Saying, âEverything happens for a reasonâ While I was face-down in the dirt Pre-Chorus You made a coffin out of comfort Dressed it up in gold and grace Every time I needed witness You just smiled into my face Chorus You poured sunshine on the grave Of everything I couldnât save Called it healing, called it hope Just another way to make me choke You turned my pain into a lesson My collapse into a blessing Now I flinch when people say âItâll all be fine, just prayâ Your light was just another blade Verse 2 You said, âRise above itâ While I was barely breathing Told me not to feed the darkness Like I invented all my bleeding You made sorrow feel embarrassing Made anger feel obscene So I learned to rot in silence Behind a smile polished clean Pre-Chorus You were worshipping denial Calling it serenity But all your hollow affirmations Did their own kind of violence to me Chorus You poured sunshine on the grave Of everything I couldnât save Called it healing, called it hope Just another way to make me choke You turned my pain into a lesson My collapse into a blessing Now I flinch when people say âItâll all be fine, just prayâ Your light was just another blade Bridge I didnât need silver linings I needed truth without disguise I needed someone who could hold me Without repainting all my skies Your mercy came with conditions Your comfort came with a lie Be grateful, be graceful, be quiet Thatâs how you taught me to die inside Final Chorus You poured sunshine on the grave And stood there calling me saved But your hope was just a muzzle And your peace was just a cage You turned my wounds into a sermon My survival into performance Now Iâm sweeping up the pieces Of the self you helped erase Your light was never love to me It was just poison with a prettier face
