Burn

I had a love to tell, it didn't want to be

Before the ships set sail and landed at our feet

Before the world was new, and its name was cast along

And all the people burned in the heat of his song

And today, we're blue

Nothing new

Sitting tired in our skin

A subtle burn still dealt within

And so you claim that you've won

That your next claim should be the sun

And so how far will you go

Before you take a look around and know

That your path was aligned

With the force you sought to fight?

It's dizzying, I know

We've sung it time and time before

And now we sit here with ourselves

Talking of reclaim or sinking in our shells

How did we come undone so quickly?

A song is sung of the sun and its duty
