The sun that pierced my aching heart
Sooner or later, will tear me apart
My black eyed love will leave me bruised
Broken and battered, and feeling confused

Who am I today?
Keep the sun away

Rain down on freezing bones
Oh I don't know if I can be left alone
Wind blows 'cross a dead man's eyes, oh and I
Think I'm coming to the end of the line

A captain on his sinking ship
King into battle, stiff upper lip
But I protect my covered pride
By staying defensive, denying the tide

Here's my final play
Keep the sun away

If I could I'd erase you away
I'd erase you away
Wish I could keep the sun away
Keep the sun away
