Burning the Sun

Empires were built through the centuries drones On somebody’s flesh and on somebody’s bones Creating our needs while dumping what’s left Now nature’s dying, it’s choking to death Tell me, ah... We’re burning the sun, we’ll tear down the mountain And drink out the river ‘til river runs dry We’ll shoot at the stars, or torture the ocean ‘Til Earth will stop breathing and wind wouldn’t fly As we’re gaining strength – the world’s getting week We’re blowing away the remains as we speak Another decade, we’re pushing some more Destroying the walls as we’re closing the door Tell me, ah... We’re burning the sun, we’ll tear down the mountain And drink out the river ‘til river runs dry We’ll shoot at the stars, or torture the ocean ‘Til Earth will stop breathing and wind wouldn’t fly We’ve buried ourselves by building a tower To climb up to heaven – we’re falling to hell We’re burning the sun, we’ll tear down this mountain And drink out the river until river runs dry When the forest turns to desert When the river turns to mud When the air becomes a treasure Who’s allowed to tear it all apart? When the forest turns to desert (When the river turns to mud) When the air becomes a treasure Who’s allowed to tear it all apart? We’re burning the sun, we’ll tear down the mountain And drink out the river ‘til river runs dry We’ll shoot at the stars, or torture the ocean ‘Til Earth will stop breathing and wind wouldn’t fly We’ve buried ourselves by building a tower To climb up to heaven – we’re falling to hell We’re burning the sun, we’ll tear down this mountain And drink out the river until the river runs dry! We’re burning the sun...
