[Verse]
WellE, I can't crawl into a dGeep hole fAast enoughE  
You won't listen but I'm Anever gonna Ggive you upE  
Fingers crossed Gbehind my Aback
EI'm running out of time and Aslipping through the Gcracks and
BIf I look it in the eyes, you've Dwon

'Cause I'm blinded by the sun
[Main Riff]
[Verse]
Well, EI kinda wish that GI could get inAside your headE  
Throw a switch, make you Alisten to Gwhat I saidE  
Then you'd see something Gthere when you Alook at meE

Not gonna give up and runA  
When I'm Gblinded by the sun
