"The Carolina Sun" And we watched the Carolina Sun as it rose up from the coast We chased it to California Where we watched it become a ghost I'd lost myself and you found me Oh, but then I lost everything I'd always known that looking back On the tears, oh, would make me laugh But I'd never known looking back On the laughs, oh, would make me have To just ask you why you loved me You said your heart never gave you a choice But looking back, it's plain to see That you've said that same thing to all the boys And we watched the Carolina Sun as it rose up from the coast We chased it to California Where we watched it become a ghost I'd lost myself and you found me Oh, but then I lost everything And I wrote a song about our time spent About wondering where all the days have went And now I spent my time rehearsing it So everyone knows, you're deserving it Sick of the tension, sick of the terror And my clenched fist bursts right through the mirror The shards of glass carve your name in my wrist And yet it's ten times sweeter than your kiss I never told you everything No, no, not even when I heard you scream Your cries to me were all in vain Because you didn't even feel the same And we watched the Carolina Sun as it rose up from the coast We chased it to California Where we watched it become a ghost I'd lost myself and you found me Oh, but then I lost everything And we watched the Carolina Sun as it rose up from the coast We chased it to California Where we watched it become a ghost I'd lost myself and you found me Oh, but then I lost everything And we watched the Carolina Sun as it rose up from the coast We chased it to California Where we watched it become a ghost I'd lost myself and you found me Oh, but then I lost everything
I already told you what I think about this on FB, but here goes. I find this irresistibly pretty. Can't help imagining it a Mayday Parade song, though.
Thanks, hun. It was mostly inspired by Mayday Parade. I've been writing a lot of pop punk songs lately.
