Black sun

I run for my life
Under the black sunlight
On deserted streets
Uneasy dreams I sleep
In this forgitten place
I'm a forgotten face
Sometimes I don't exist
Like the dust swept aside
Fade away on the wind fadeaway
To walk away into the tide walkaway
That's the end
That's the end
The end of the great black gold
That's the dream
That's the dream
The dream that I wake up to
The dawn of the great black sun
It shines on me
Scream for help
From this silent soul
This man feels no pain
This pride will not break
I want to breathe the night
I want to feel the air
I want to take it in deep
I want to set myself free
Fade away on the wind fadeaway
Walk away into the tide walkaway
Walkaway
That's the end
That's the end
The end of the great black gold
That's the dream
That's the dream
The dream that I wake up to
The dawn of the great black sun
That shines on me
Shines on me
Oh yeah
Shines on me
Oh shines on me
The great black sun
That shines on me
Shines on me
The great black sun
Shines on me
