I have learned to see me in the mirror
I have tried my hardest to forgive
I have watched the Moon shimmer on the water
I have done my best to not dive in

Why can't I let the Sun set?
Why can't I let the Sun set?
It's easy to just forget
Why can't I just forget?

This lingering presence haunts me
These hands, they reach right out
On foot and under lamp lights
I wander through these streets
I walk around and around
And in these violent embers
Of what my words once were
I still see fragments of your eye
Catching the gleam of the night
Like fire before it can burn

Oh, why can't I let the Sun set?
Why can't I let the Sun set?
It's easy to just forget
Why can't I just forget?
Why can't I let the Sun set?
Why can't I let the Sun set?
It's easy to just forget
Why can't I just forget?
Why can't I let the Sun set?
Set

Why can't I let the Sun set?
Why can't I let the Sun set?
It's easy to just forget
Why can't I just forget?
