Filter - Burn Out the Sun LYRICS



Oh no what time is it I just got fine with it

Everything we talked about it’s all gotta change

It needs a rearrange I like talking to you but I lose track of the time

My heart is still cold from the other line

My soul was provoked for a different crime

I know you’ll find a way I know you’ll get away

But will you take me with you I hope you take me with you


I feel so tired 

But time keeps marching on 

I can’t sleep till all

These clouds are gone 


Oh no we’re blind again we just lost the sight of it

Everything and all that we had ever done

We need to see again we stopped listening

And that’s on all of us this time 

Our hearts are still sold from a simple time

And our wants are still old and we do or die 

I hope we find a way I hope we get away 

Just a rescue from a lost lonely time


I feel so tired 

But time keeps marching on 

I can’t sleep till all

These clouds are gone 

Till they’re gone 

Till they’re gone 

Till we burn out the sun

Till they’re gone 

Till we burn out the sun 


Hey will you wait for me

Hey will you wait for me


I feel so tired 

But time keeps marching on 

I can’t sleep till all

These clouds are gone 

I feel so tired 

But time keeps marching on 

I can’t sleep till all

These clouds are gone

Till they’re gone 

Till they’re gone 

Till we burn out the sun

Till they’re gone 

Till we burn out the sun
