[English]

They say that life is always easier

After you let yourself fall apart

They say they'll give you everything you want

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun

Seizing moments no one has ever known

Close the curtains, what are you waiting for?

And I'll keep my secrets until I'm in the grave

Constantly changing makes you fade away

Just paint your eyes with a vivid mind

Now you see what lies behind the lights

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun

Finding treasures that have long been lost

Building mountains in disguise

And I'll keep my secrets until I'm in the grave

I'm in the shadow of the shadow of the sun

Where I belong, something is brewing

I'm in the shadow of the shadow of the sun

Oh, and I need you

I'm in the shadow of the shadow of the sun

Where I belong, something is brewing

No more waiting, times are changing

And something is brewing

[Vietnamese]

They say that life is always easier

After you let yourself come undone

They say they'll give you all that you want

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun

Seizing time no one has been before

Close the curtains, what you waiting for?

And I'll be keeping secrets till I'm in the ground

Changing colors makes you waste away

Just paint your eyes with a vivid mind

Now you see what's behind the lights

And I'll be waiting in the shadow of the sun

Finding treasures that has been on demise

Building mountains in disguise

And I'll be keeping secrets till I'm in the ground

I'm in the shadow of the shadow of the sun

Where I belong, there's something coming on

I'm in the shadow of the shadow of the sun

Oh and I need you

I'm in the shadow of the shadow of the sun

Where I belong, there's something coming on

No more waiting, times are changing

And there's something coming on
