Bury Me Under The Sun

A continent and seven hours away And still I recall the simpler day The sun never ever sets here Burning my life For under the cover of darkness She's colder than the sea of lies Down here there's no more room For anything but well-bent truth Bury me under the sun, I'm drowning Wipe away all that I see, blind me Bury me under the sun Bury me under the sun The widow's watch is then blinded And I've been away so long Perpetual isolation The knots in its rope have come undone! The doors are closed, she's changed the locks Judgement's passed, set in stone Put it up and burn to ash Rebuild this broken home Bury me under the sun, I'm drowning Wipe away all that I see, blind me Bury me under the sun Bury me under the sun Drowning! Choking on the bitter apprehension Blind me! Dowsing with escalating tension Bury me under the sun Bury me under the sun (The sun, the sun, the sun) We're nothing, forever cold silence Only smoking words and dust Echoes scream of the past Earning you more distrust Apologize to callous ears A desert of dusty tears A flock of crows on my blight Taste the words I should have had! The words I should have had! The words I should have… A continent and seven hours away And still I yearn for simpler days The sun never sets here And it's burning my lies alive! And under the cover of darkness She's colder than a sea of lies Down here there's no more room For anything but well-bent truth Bury me under the sun, I'm drowning Wipe away all that I see, blind me Bury me under the sun Bury me under the sun
