Allure Of The Earth

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 Allure of the Earth)
 The desire to give up (the desire to give up)
 It is the encouragement (it is the encouragement)
 When you are discouraged
 The Allure of the Earth (the Allure of the Earth)
 When the urges aren't worth fighting (when the urges aren't worth fighting)
 The temptations on the great beyond
 Become so exciting
