lyrics

Red fleshy film shades my eyes from the daylight
Pull back the skin just in time for the dark night

I know you're hiding, still I feel you warm on my skin
The trees are dying, yet there's still oxygen to breathe in

Gold flaky flecks speck my eyes from your sunshine
Fade into gray, colors lost in the moonshine
Black, shades of white, glowing by your reflection
Scared in the night, but still your light gives protection

I know you're hiding, still I feel you warm on my skin
The trees are dying, yet there's still oxygen to breathe in

You're scared of the praise that you deserve
How refreshing to praise someone unheard of
Sunshine, how my heart recalls the glow
But without you how am I supposed to grow?
I sense that you aren't far away
Please ascend and bless me with another day
I'm sorry for having closed by eyes
But now I'm looking and sun it's time to rise
Sun it's time to rise
