Beneath the Captive Sun

she said, there's something to remember
something deep within us all
it's gone forever in a moment
it's gone if quickly don't you turn

what lies beyond the dark surrounds us
surrounds our whispers and our thoughts
in one turn are the final memories
consumed as quickly as they burn

the lights are set on the carousel
and in the end, it's you i tell
the lines are drawn from where we stand
there'll be no peace by circumstance

beneath the captive sun
the fire makes us one

the changing states, beyond repair
the walls collapse, the visions stare
can't find a way to end this well
we take a ride on the carousel

beneath the captive sun
the fire makes us one

what is this now i am looking to find?
time speaks no truth and i'm left behind
i walk down the path that has come to my eyes
and all i see there is wrapped in disguise
and if you pick the trail that leads to the sun
all roads will end...

what comes and goes is drawn between us
drawn beneath the captive sun
