lyrics

Sun in the center crowning horizon
Spilling through valleys, soaks into leaves

Light in the morning, clawing through unprepared eyes
Thief of sleep and sight, decider of life

That blooming orb of flame
Its constant daggers
Imbuing dust with thought
To languish under its watch

Sun in the center rejecting horizon
Warping landscapes, dehydrating skies

Unknowable vastness of temporal majesty
heat singed strands, unraveling braids

This stretching ring of flame
Its lunar occlusion
Alignment of bodies and sight
Encircling ring of dusk

Night sky smoldering
Solar soliloquy interrupted
Witness the sun overtaken
Reminder of dark’s omnipresence

Golden light pooling in vacant chambers
The womb of nothing
Black from which no light escapes
This sun will burn out
Outlived by space which held it

The bladed sun whose rays pierce into our minds
The moon between brings stars to midday sky
The cold of space soaks into the desert floor
And through it all the sun still burns
