Yet The Sun Still Shines



In the mood of anguish
In the sulk of pines
In the state of languish
Yet the sun still shines

In the mood of fuddle
In the doubt of signs
In the state of muddle
Yet the sun still shines

In the mood of claptrap
In the flush of steins
In the state of mishap
Yet the sun still shines

In the mood of wrangle
In the knot of twines
In the state of tangle
Yet the sun still shines

In the mood of uncouth
In the cross of lines
In the state of untruth
Yet the sun still shines

In the mood of heartbreak
In the qualm of whines
In the state of headache
Yet the sun still shines
