Sunrise, Sunset Lyrics - Fevers & Mirrors - Bright Eyes

Sunrise, sunset 

Sunrise, sunset 

Swiftly go the days 

Sunrise, sunset 

You wake up, then you undress 

It always is the same 

A sunrise and the sun sets 

Youre lying while you confess 

Keep trying to explain 

A sunrise and the sun sets 

You realize then you forget 

What youve been trying to retain 

But everybody knows its all about the things 

That get stuck inside of your head 

Like the songs your roommate sings 

A vision of her body as she stretches out on your bed 

And she raised her hands in the air asked you 

When was the last time you looked in the mirror? 

'Cause you have changed, yeah, you have changed 

Sunrise, the sun sets 

You are hopeful, then you regret 

The circle never breaks 

With a sunrise and a sunset 

Theres a change of heart or address 

Is there nothing that remains? 

For a sunrise or a sunset 

Youre manic or youre depressed 

Will you ever feel okay? 

For a sunrise or sunset 

Your lover is an actress 

Did you really think shed stay? 

For a sunrise or sunset 

Youre either coming or you just left 

But youre always on the way 

Towards a sunrise or a sunset 

A scribble or a sonnet 

They are really just the same 

To the sunrise and the sunset 

The master and his servant 

Have exactly the same fate 

Its a sunrise and a sunset 

From a cradle to a casket 

Theres no way to escape 

The sunrise and the sunset 

Hold your sadness like a puppet 

Keep putting on the play 

But everything you do is leading to the point 

Where you just wont know what to do 

And at that moment you may laugh but there is someone 

There who will be laughing louder than you 

So its true, the trick is complete 

Become everything you said that you never would be 

Youre a fool, youre a fool 

Sunrise, sunset 

Sunrise, sunset 

Sunrise and the sun sets 

Sunrise, sunset 

Sunrise, the sun sets 

Sunrise, the sun sets 

Sunrise, sunset 

Go home to your apartment 

Put the cassette in the tape deck and let that fever play 

Sunrise, sunset 

Where are you, Arienette? 

Where are you, Arienette?
