Children of the Sun

We are ancient, as ancient as the sun

We came from the ocean, once our ancestral home

So that one day we could all return

To our birthright, the great celestial dome

We are the children of the sun

Our journey's just begun

Sunflowers in our hair

We are the children of the sun

There is room for everyone

Sunflowers in our hair

Throughout the ages of iron, bronze, and stone

We marveled at the night sky and what may lie beyond

We burned our frames to the elemental ones

Made sacrifices for beauty, peace, and love

We are the children of the sun

Our kingdom will come

Sunflowers in our hair

We are the children of the sun

Our carnival's begun

Our songs will fill the air

And you know it's time to look for reasons why

Just reach up and touch the sky

To the heavens, we'll sing

We are the children of the sun

Our journey has begun

All the older children

Come out at night

And we make soulless

Great hunger in their eyes

Unaware of the beauty

That sleeps tonight

And all the queen's horses

And all the king's men

Will never put these children back

Together again

Faith, hope

Our charities

Breathe slow

Our enemies

We are the children of the sun

We are the children of the sun
