Center of the Sun
We were born to crawl
On our knees and hands
And we’ll die on them
Fulfilling their demands
We breathe in the air
But the air is poison
Yet we inhale so deeply
For no apparent reason
We taste the blood
And hear the screams
We pinch each other’s arm
To try to wake from the dream
We shout at the sky
To get His attention
Cause the meaning of life
He forgot to mention
We try and try so hard
To make it through the day
Then we lie to each other
And say that we’re okay
We travel to the end of the world
To see what lies beyond
But we don’t even know
What lies across the pond
Without her, I’m nothing
A soul without a mate
And she’s the same
It’s simply fate
We take each other’s hand
And become one
As we take our one-way trip
To the center of the sun
On our knees and hands
And we’ll die on them
Fulfilling their demands
We breathe in the air
But the air is poison
Yet we inhale so deeply
For no apparent reason
We taste the blood
And hear the screams
We pinch each other’s arm
To try to wake from the dream
We shout at the sky
To get His attention
Cause the meaning of life
He forgot to mention
We try and try so hard
To make it through the day
Then we lie to each other
And say that we’re okay
We travel to the end of the world
To see what lies beyond
But we don’t even know
What lies across the pond
Without her, I’m nothing
A soul without a mate
And she’s the same
It’s simply fate
We take each other’s hand
And become one
As we take our one-way trip
To the center of the sun
