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
