Here we've come to see you burn, in this pile of stone
Light the sky, the ritual complete again
Embers rise beneath our feet, with vengeful eyes we see
One more day high above your effigy
♪
I've been away for a long, long time
Up in the clouds there's a place of mine
From mechanical chairs I watch the show
The spinning of gears keeping time below
♪
Moving around in sunrise red
The things that I've found shouldn't be here yet
Feeling alive in a higher place
Confidence burns at a record pace
Breathing in the power
I remember when
I was bleeding out
Losing hope within
(Oh, great spirit of the woods)
Then the leshy found me (change my shape, I knew you would)
In the woods that night (oh, great spirit of the woods)
Lending power upon me (make me king, I know you could)
Soon I took to flight
To the iron skyline
Far beyond my dreams
I controlled the new world
Invincible me
♪
High in my chair
I hear them yearn down there
Watching the gears turn
Then I ran into the sun
Then I ran into the sun
Then I run into the sun
Ran right into the sun
Running into the sun
Running into the sun
Running into the sun
♪
Running into the sun
Running into the sun
Running into the sun
In that moment I knew it was over
And I realized
How I would be eulogized
You were the one, the one who would fade the light
You were the one, who only lived here for himself
You were the one, who counted our tears for fun
You were the one, playing the game all by yourself
♪
Is this a dream?
Move me away from here
Make me whole again
Take me away from here
This is a dream now
You thought I couldn't fly again? But you're wrong
Back in my throne again
It's a new day for me
Feeling alive in a higher place
Confidence burns at a record pace
Shooting at mountains with finger guns
Stopped in my tracks when I hit the sun
♪
Right into the sun
Ran right into the sun
♪
Pale light comes in like water
Through cracks in the darkness forming lines across the land
A legend falls around us with a thousand lies
If you listen close, you'll hear him crying in the sky
We listen to this great sky
Echoes fall like rain
♪
I thought that I was the only one, in this sky
Nothing around me, not even the sun
The moon had abandoned me for a while
Once caught a glimpse of that famous smile
♪
Don't you know
It's the same way it's always been?
Wouldn't you know
You learned that lesson running into the sun?
We listen to this great sky
Echoes fall like rain
Bring back the light
Bring back the sun
Come back home tonight
We see the light
We see the sun
♪
Here we've come to see you burn, in this pile of stone
