Assemblage 23 Sun Lyrics

Sun Lyrics

The first day 

I felt changed 

I felt removed and broken 

Over
man 

Over God 

But weak by the same token 



Wherewithal


Has dissolved 

A soulless apparition 

Loss of choice 

Lost my voice 

Condemned and then conditioned 



CHORUS:

I turn my eyes up to the sun 

And stare ahead as if there's none 

Mere cinders where my eyes had been 

Forced to forget the things I've
seen 



My limbs move 

Without will 

My thoughts without
emotion 

Ignorant 

Of my cause 

But with complete devotion 

I'm sent forth 

To collect 

Another bitter harvest 

A cruel
trial 

To find out 

Who they can push the farthest 



CHORUS



Mowing down 

Rows and rows 

Like waves of
flesh, blood, and bone 

Staring blank 

Into space 

No sign of
life on my face 

Empty man 

With a gun 

What on earth have you
done? 

On your knees 

On your knees 

For the land of the free




CHORUS
