Oh no, I’m verified, I’m on the books
They’ve got my number now, all the crooks
I’m terrified what they might do
If I misspeak or tell the truth
The loudest voice, the softest breath
The fear of life, the fear of death
Not forever, this gilded lie
The earth will flex, the false will die
The truth will live in every note
DNA to thunderbolt
The truth is love, the truth is life
The truth is sowing paradise
(Candles in the sun)
Oh mother, oh father
Careful, don’t drink the water
Oh brother, oh sister
Be careful what you believe (Candles in the sun)
The things we’d do to each other
I’m worried to discover
I hear it, I fear it
I’m giving all for liberty (Candles in the sun)
I’m running, I’m falling
Trying to heed the warning
I’m bleeding, I’m seething
Feels like a match to kerosene (Candles in the sun)
You know it, you grow it
They’re selling poison poets
I’m reaching, I’m seeking
Those texts aren’t fit for being free (Candles in the sun)
(Candles in the sun)
