I watch you bend beneath the waves and it seems heavier these days,
Each time I see you force a smile, my heart just breaks to see you bend beneath the waves.
I don’t believe this is what God ever intended,
I think it’s time to go.
The sun is going down, I say we follow it out of town,
We’ve been here for far too long, (will they know we’re gone?)
And in the morning, when it rises, maybe it will shine for us.
You and me against the world – I don’t mind,
I’ve been feeling so low, (so low)
The sleepwalkers or the girl? – Made up my mind,
I’ve been feeling so low, so low.
I want you to look me in the eye, tell me if we stay here we won’t die,
They’ll say we love the darkness, but I’ll say we hate their half light,
Can you to look me in the eye?
I don’t believe this is what God ever intended,
So I wanted you to know…
The sun is going down, I say we follow it out of town,

You and me against the world, I don’t mind,
We’ve been feeling so low, (so low)
The sleepwalkers for the girl – made up my mind.
The sun is going down, let’s follow it out of town,
It’ll shine on us tomorrow when it comes back around,
The sun is going down, let’s follow it out of town,
It’ll shine on us tomorrow when it comes back around.
It’s gonna be alright, (gonna be alright)
It’s gonna be alright, (gonna be alright)
It’s gonna be alright.
I don’t believe this is what God ever intended,

The sun is going down,
The sun is going down,
It’s gonna be alright,
The sun is going down,
The sun is going down,
It’s gonna be alright.
