Staring at the Sun

STARING AT THE SUN 
(West)  

Well you talk about the way out  
Like there’s no way out 
When you talk about the way out 
And you talk about redemption 
With a heart of doubt 
When you talk about the way out  

Well you talk about surrender 
Like you know you’ve lost 
When you talk about surrender
Well I hope that you remember 
There’s a line you cross 
When you talk about surrender  

Maybe we’re meant to bow down 
As we enter our darkest hour 
But I’ll be staring at the sun 
Maybe they want us to break 
At their pointed display of power 
But we have only just begun  

Well you talk of intervention 
Like a long lost dream 
When you talk of intervention 
Do you start to feel the tension 
Like a heart of steam 
When you talk of intervention  

Maybe we’re meant to bow down 
As we enter our darkest hour 
But I’ll be staring at the sun 
Maybe they want us to break 
At their pointed display of power 
But we have only just begun

Maybe they’re stirred by the boundaries 
They blurred in their darkest hour 
But time will level all they’ve done 
Maybe they want us to break 
At their pointed display of power 
But we have only just begun
