Sunlifter Lyrics

To remain asleep a thousand years
To go on drawing shallow breath through an iron lung
Stargazer, once you've seen the things you've seen
Compromise, looking down is letting go...
We gather all we have to burn away the dark
Even in the end, even far away
I know your heart beats in time with mine, in defiance of all
I can feel the sun, and the dissonance washes over me
I am purified, I am paralyzed, and here I make my peace
We die this way, all our questions unanswered
I've shown you rainbows in grey
But through your narrowed eyes you see
Only victory or defeat
In black and white
You'll burn your hands and fall to ash
Trying to lift up the Sun
You'll learn your place down below
Trying to lift up the Sun...
