The sun goes down, the lights go out You go to sleep and dream about What you wanna be when you're grown Every day they steal your prayers You keep your secret hidden from them far away And you never share what you know Dream what you are, you sunflower Be what you are, sunflower Your father said it's in your head He knew someone who knew someone Who wound up dead, we all wind up dead We all wind up dead and you know The shadows start to steal your heart They get inside and piece by piece They tear apart your very soul And your very art and you know So turn and face the sun again Dream what you are, you sunflower Rise up and face the sun again Be what you are, you sun flower We always run towards the sun You lead us on and cut us down, you cannot run From the damage done and there's damage done And you know We'll turn and face the sun again Dream what you are, you sunflower Rise up and face the sun again Be what you are, you sunflower So turn and face the sun again Dream what you are you sunflower Rise up and face the sun again Be what you are, you sunflower The sun goes down, the lights go out
