"BEEN AROUND THE SUN" by David Guilbault
Been around the sun, son, too many times.
Been around the sun, son. Nearly blinded my eyes.
Been around the sun, son. Orbit’s on the wane.
Goin’ ‘round the sun, holdin’ on to a cane.

Days they been hard, son. Nights, they been worse.
Years they been rolling, chartin’ a curse.
Been around that sun, son. Circle keepin’ time.
Goin’ ‘round the sun, getting’ ready to die.
‘Round and ‘round and ‘round we go.
Where we stop, nobody knows.
Just want it to go some more,
‘Fore I’m dropped at eternity’s door.

Been around the sun, son, maybe seen too much.
Like the glow of the cosmic flow, the sting of the godly touch.
Been around the sun, son. Now I think I know.
When the sun goes dark, the light will show.
‘Round and ‘round and ‘round we go.
When we stop, nobody knows.
Just want it to go some more,
‘Fore I’m dropped at eternity’s door.
Been around the sun, son, so close to the end.
Been around the sun, son, just doin’ what I can.
Been around the sun son. Don’t know why or when.
Goin’ ‘round the sun, near the final bend.
Goin’ ‘round the sun, so close to the end.
