Story Behind the Song
Nothing too deep here - at the time, I was working on the 13th floor of an insurance building, staring out the window, wishing I was far away. Needless-to-say, I was "let go" shortly after this song was written...go figure :) MTK helped me edit & tighten up the lyrics, as he's quite the advocate, when it comes to the anti-establishment schools of thought L)
Lyrics
Come sit below the sun,
beneath it in a bliss,
and feel the warmth of change.
Come lose your emptiness,
unravel what you missed,
when you turned your head.
Why you wanna’ kick me down all the time?
Come lift your head again;
don’t fear you can’t begin.
this is you & you only.
Come lift your dying eyes,
beyond the bitter sights;
I know there’s many…
Why you wanna’ kick me down all the time?
Down, keepin’ me round,
Given I’m bound & unforgiven.
Try, heaven denied;
There’s no way out and no way in.
Sun leaves & you run;
You knew that I couldn’t do that.
Down, keepin’ me round…
…deep is the sound of thinning air.
Gone like the seasons come.
We kill of every one –
claim it in God’s name.
Come sit below the sun,
beneath it in a bliss,
& feel that nothing’s changed.
