Barbwire by Atticus Lyrics

You are the sun bright in day
Shining over me from dawn until dusk
Being easily amused by the things
That I can only smirk at

Your thoughts and ideas
Glisten and cascade
In the many things you accomplish
Mine shimmer and sparkle in a darker presence
Of the accomplishments I am proud of

You always seem so happy
I always look so sad
Having a full and complete grasp of your lectures
While I am constantly misunderstood if understood at all

I am the moon dark in the night
When my time comes to shine you are gone
And I play my guitar with barbed wire strings
And pay for the memories that I have captured
