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
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
