[Verse 1]
A continent and seven hours away
And still, I recall the simpler day
The sun never, ever sets here
And it's burning my lies alive
But under the cover of darkness
She's colder than the single lies
Down here, there's no more room
For anything but well-bent truth

[Chorus]
Bury me under the sun
I'm drowning
Wipe away all that I see
Blind me

[Post-Chorus]
Bury me under the sun
Bury me under the sun

[Verse 2]
The widows watch as they're blinded
And I've been away so long (Away so long)
Perpetual isolation
The knots in its rope have come undone
The doors are closed, she's changed the locks
Judgment's passed, set in stone (Set in stone)
Put it up and burn to ash
Rebuild this broken home
[Chorus]
Bury me under the sun
I'm drowning
Wipe away all that I see
Blind me

[Post-Chorus]
Bury me under the sun
Bury me under the sun

[Bridge 1]
Drowning!
Choking on the bit of apprehension
Blind me!
Dousing with escalating tension

[Refrain]
Bury me under the sun
Bury me under the sun
(The sun, the sun, the sun)

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Bridge 2]
When nothing's left but cold silence
Unspoken words and dust
Echoes scream of the past
Earning you more distrust
[Bridge 3]
Apologize to callous ears
A desert of dusty tears
A flock of crows on my blight
Taste the words I should have heard
The words I should have heard
The words I should have...

[Verse 3]
A continent and seven hours away
And still, I yearn for simpler days
The sun never sets here
And it's burning my lies alive
But under the cover of darkness
She's colder than our single lies
Down here, there's no more room
For anything but well-bent truth

[Chorus]
Bury me under the sun
I'm drowning
Wipe away all that I see
Blind me

[Post-Chorus]
Bury me under the sun
Bury me under the sun
