Beyond Black Suns - These New Puritans

Burning in, burning out

This is the fire you can’t put out

Isn’t life a funny thing?

All these words they say nothing

Count your lives: one, two, three

In the age of the bored there is this escape:

Open up your eyes, open up your eyes

This is not yesterday, this is not yesterday

From the kingdom to crown, from upside to down

This is not yesterday, this is not yesterday

Burning in, burning out

This is the fire you can’t put out

Isn’t life a funny thing?

All these words they say nothing

Count your lives as we rotate

In the witless age there is this escape:

(Kingdom to crown, zero to found, there is a sky inside)

Open up your eyes, tell me truth and lies

This is not yesterday, this is not yesterday

From the kingdom to crown, from upside to down

This is not yesterday, this is not yesterday

We’re on the run

Beyond black suns

We’re on the run

There is a sky inside

We’re on the run

Beyond black suns

We’re on the run

There is a sky inside
