lyrics

the sky here is so bright
a sharp vision of white
and glaring right at it
i see figures in static
how long has it been
i've had these eyes open?
i'm staring at the sun
with pupils come undone
the beauty is all around
like white fire raining down
and finally it's coming clear
there's something drawing near
how long has it been
i've had these eyes open?
i'm staring at the sun
with pupils come undone
any day now i'll hold
these weary eyes closed
let the light slip past me
as my life outlasts me
