Sunn - Radical Face

I watched the sunlight cross the furniture

And I didn’t flinch when it all got burned away

And while in the middle of those fires

I always find myself with nothing much to say

And I used to wish my blood would travel

That my genetic line

It wouldn’t end with me

But in the light of all that’s built me

I see that some dead ends are probably for the best

Come find these thoughts and pull them out of me

'Cause they’re nothing I have asked for

Sometimes when sleep becomes your enemy

It feels better to dream when the sun is accounted for

I sang a song I swore I would

Until my voice was gone

Now I’m just listening

While the sunlight cuts its name in my skin

And I left my ghost along the shore

To find a port to harbor me

But I ain’t so young

To believe a home is ever very permanent

So save yourself a little breath

We don’t often change what we’re scared of

And we just paint the scars and pretend they were never there

You can save yourself a second guess

When it’s all a cycle

Come find these thoughts and pull them out of me

'Cause they’re nothing I have asked for

And sometimes when sleep becomes your enemy

It feels better to dream when the sun is accounted for

'Cause I only wanna let this go
