My Sun & Stars
The Sickness (Single 2016)

lyrics

Have empathy for the sickness
that shrouded my judgement
Have empathy because the sickness knew no better than to just keep pushing me

If you've ever had this sickness then find solace in the words
That spill from
my mouth

Let me be the reason
the anchor grounding you to hope
And let me be the binding force
Between your mind and soul

From the mountain top to the seabed rocks
You'll see my loving bones
Don't let this sickness bring you down
Don't let this sickness bring you down

Warp up the clothes of demise
Throw them to the side
For you need no introduction
Now your free to thrive

I would paint you a picture and
It wouldn't fit these walls
I would paint you a picture but
You wouldn't find a frame

From the mountain top to the seabed rocks
You'll see my loving bones
Don't let this sickness bring you down
Don't let this sickness bring you down

The picture would run and the colours they would bleed
Like the callous words
You made me content and happy to be
Until that frightful morning you took it away from me

Last December
I will remember
Last December
I will remember
Last December
I will remember
The day the sickness
Left me
