Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Burn down the sun
I'm not everyone
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I'm here to stay
Not here today
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I'm nothing but a body in my mind
[Verse 2]
I feel something ain't right
No fear but reason that I can't cite
[Verse 3]
Tear down the sun
Bring down the sun
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
[Verse 4]
Unholy sin
Unholy fate
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I'm left to ash
Not here but past
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I'm nothing but a body in my mind
[Verse 5]
I feel that something ain't right
No fear but reason that I can't cite
[Verse 6]
Tear down the sun
Bring down the sun
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
Burn down the sun
[Verse 7]
Speculation
Come on get your self together
Speculation
Become the owl at midnight
In situation
I am the seer, I am the seeker
In situation
Become the wound that binds you
Become the wound that binds you
Become the owl at midnight
Become the owl at midnight
[Verse 8]
I'm high and dry
I'm ash made time
I'm sun-filled bright
And nothing but a body in my mind
I'm nothing but a body in my mind
[Verse 9]
Tear down the sun
Bring down the sun
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
Burn down the sun
