The Red Sky

Another really old song, probably 25 years...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The torrid sun burns my eyes
as night becomes the day.
I feel the heat, I have no shield
I try to get away.
 
Run until my legs have failed
crawl upon my knees.
Dragging myself forward
I try to reach the trees.
 
I lie beneath the branches
to escape the angry sky.
Wait for the sun to leave
it waits for me to die.
 
 
The heat of the sun is burning
every inch of my pale skin.
I don’t know what this is
but I won’t let it win.
 
I walk out into the sun
shade my eyes from the light.
I cover up my skin
prepare myself to fight.
 
The torrid sun burns my eyes
as night becomes the day.
I feel the heat, I have no shield
I try to get away.
Run until my legs have failed
crawl upon my knees.
Dragging myself forward
I try to reach the trees.
