about

"Sun Rise is a song I wrote about the dedication and mentally exhausting effects caused by chasing a dream" - Ryan O'Meara

lyrics

VERSE 1:

I wake up Sunday at 1pm...
Last nights club stamp still stained on my hand...
My head is aching and my eyes are red...
Pain killers to stop the stampede in my head...
Man, all my wages are gone...
I've barely got a penny left...

I'm trying to work it out, will I go far...
Trying to make a living off of this guitar...
I live from a tip glass at my local bar...
Just a local star with this old guitar...
Then I'm back within these four walls...
Wide awake and I watch time crawl...

CHORUS:

Coz, I'll be here until after dark...
And I can't wait for the Sun Rise again...
So I can try again...
To figure out where I belong...

VERSE 2:

I'm sitting here waisted on whiskey and wine...
Guitars and a deck of cards just to pass the time...
A couple friends, satisfied with their nine to five's...
Wage is minimum... That's not where I belong...
I don't know what I'm looking for...
I'm searching for something...
Spent years on this mic and I wont waist it for nothing...

And once again I can hear the rain...
Tap, tapping S.O.S on my window pain...
This time last year I was just the same...
And here we go again... nothing's ever changed...
I'm trying to fight struggle just to move along...
Time starts to fly, like where's the days gone...

CHORUS:

Coz, I'll be here until after dark...
And I can't wait for the Sun Rise again...
So I can try again...
To figure out where I belong...

VERSE 3:

I feel like I'm failing...
In time I'll fall...
Man, I don't feel quite right at all...
My pen In hand...
Guitar on my knee...
And then I fall asleep to live a realer dream...
Street lights form shadows across my walls...
Seems like the only light I'll see...

But I'm just a bird...
Trying to fly...
Trying to get used to my wings...
I'm just a sailor on the ocean...
Trying to get used to high winds...
And am I failing now? Failing now...

CHORUS:

Coz, I'll be here until after dark...
And I can't wait for the Sun Rise again...
So I can try again...
To figure out where I belong...
