**[Intro — whispered / hazy]** Yeah… When the sun goes down… That’s when we come alive… **[Verse 1]** When the sun goes down, I tell ’em, “It’s going down” Same old streets, but I see ’em different now I wanna go back to the rain, back to the rain Wash away the noise running circles in my brain I’ve been waiting on the morning, waiting on the light Walking through the city when it turns to night Don’t know where I’m going, but I know I’ll find a way Chasing something real at the ending of the day **[Pre-Chorus — melodic cloud vocal]** The house of the rising sun You know where we’re coming from Lost souls underneath the sky Still looking for a reason why **[Chorus — hypnotic]** Me and my friend, we run into the sun Disappear somewhere when the afternoon comes Hide from the heat, let the whole world pass by I wanna see the best before the daylight dies Let the sunlight shine through Let the sunlight shine through Even when the whole sky turns blue-grey I still wanna find my way **[Verse 2 — low, intimate rap]** We’re all connected, maybe that’s the truth Trying to find God while I’m searching for my youth Accept me for the person I became No perfect answers, just a head full of names Take a breath, say a prayer, look up to the sky Clouds moving slowly while the hours pass by Backstage with the day, yeah, I’m fighting again Trying to make peace with the voice in my head **[Pre-Chorus]** And it rained all day, I woke before the sun Cold cup of coffee, watching morning come No sleep, no plans, just a city outside Another long night trying to get right **[Chorus]** Me and my friend, we run into the sun Disappear somewhere when the afternoon comes Hide from the heat, let the whole world pass by I wanna see the best before the daylight dies Let the sunlight shine through Let the sunlight shine through Even when the whole sky turns blue-grey I still wanna find my way **[Bridge — floating vocal / half-time]** Like the sun came up inside my eyes For a second, everything felt right Love, can I make you see? There’s still a little light left in me **[Outro — fading]** When the sun goes down… We’re still here somehow… Waiting for the rain… Waiting for the light…
