[Verse 1:]
Her force is coming out as she floats into the sky
And I'm buried in the shadow that is cast within her light
I've been secluded and pent up and dreading the thought that I know you hate me so
Though I'd not wish for more than to prop you up, I'm still afraid to go
And she's the one in the highest tower who watches over the land
With her all-seeing eye like through the barrel of a gun

[Refrain:]
And I want to be with the goddess of the sun

[Pre-Verse 2:]
And I've whispered, and she heard
The words I did not want her to hear

[Verse 2:]
I've failed to make amends to be accepted for who I am
Or to make you notice I'm heated and ready to take you by the hand
You would never know or comprehend the loneliness of night
How I wish you'd stop to tell me that it's going to be alright
When you cast me out of the story, I said I wished that I'd have died
If I knew you would believe me, then you know I would've lied

[Refrain:]
And I want to be with the goddess of the sun
I want to be with the goddess of the sun
[Bridge:]
Can't you see I'm not who I was, 'cause I'm used to our compromise
I'm reminded of all of the time that I spent with telling myself those lies
But the times have changed from then to now, and you have lost belief
In trying to make me see it your way, in trying to make me leave
You get the adoration and the respect that you deserve
But I've been cast aside and trampled to make way for what you've earned
I just don't want to fight anymore

She steps out onto that pedestal high above her subjects
And I recede behind her to be forgotten in the sunset
They often hear my name and fear that I am strong
I don't think they'd ever know that I have not moved on

But I know that it's wrong
How I want to belong
I don't know when
I don't know why won't you love me?
Why won't you love me?
Why won't you love me?
Why won't you love me?
You'll never love me

[Refrain:]
I want to see myself come out from the dark
I want to be with the goddess of the sun
