lyrics

BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN

Dying to live
Can't wait to rise
Trapped in the dark
Held down

All that I give
My sacrifice
Burning inside
Burning down

Don't lay me down to rest
My flesh will bear the test
No earth can hold me down
No tombstone on this crown

This soul burns brighter than the sun
I'll fight this battle ‘til I've won
I’m burning brighter than the sun
I’m in this battle ‘til I’ve won

Slamming the door
Locking me up
Flipping the switch
In my brain

How many more
Am I to take
Into this ditch?
It's insane

Don't lay me down to rest
My flesh will bear the test
No earth can hold me down
No tombstone on this crown

This soul burns brighter than the sun
I'll fight this battle ‘til I've won
I’m burning brighter than the sun
I’m in this battle ‘til I’ve won

Sold on a dream
I gave it my all
A deal that was made
With the devil

Painted the scenes
On my funeral pall
The canvas I gave
Now I'm horizontal

Don't lay me down to rest
My flesh will bear the test
No earth can hold me down
No tombstone on this crown

This soul burns brighter than the sun
I'll fight this battle ‘til I've won
I’m burning brighter than the sun
I’m in this battle ‘til I’ve won
