Allure Of The Earth Lyrics - Singles - Woods Of Ypres

The sun taunts you 

In everything you do 

Like a substance that works for everyone else 

But has no effect on you 

It shines for places 

You'll never go 

It shines for people 

You'll never know 

You believe that in your entire life 

You will never feel 

What it's like 

So you turn away 

Dream about an escape 

A hole in the earth deep and cool 

That you could climb down into 

I despise the rising 

Of the upsetting sun 

I'll hide away 

Until the day is done 

I'll exclude myself 

A few months of every year 

To avoid the drama 

Of the sun, sweat and tears 

You could fall away 

And no one would know 

Release the tension of holding on 

Feel the high of letting go 

So you turn away 

Elude the pressures of the sun 

Go find your place in the shade 

Far away from everyone 

It's so easy to get your fill 

When the engine turns and pushes in the dirt 

It's so easy to be satisfied 

When all you want to do is lay down and die 

The Allure of the Earth 

Those dreams can come true 

When you make a deal with the earth 

Who says... 

"Here's what I can do for you..." 

The Allure of the Earth 

When you are through with trying 

When you are tired and days are long 

Letting go seems so inviting 

The Allure of the Earth 

The desire to give up 

It is the encouragement 

When you are discouraged 

The Allure of the Earth 

When the urges aren't worth fighting 

The temptations on the great beyond 

Become so exciting
