Blinded by a setting sun,
8pm on a summer night,
You say to me,
"My, my, look into those eyes."
Looking back at you is the sun,
His eyes are deep down brown.
Why won't you leave?
I'm begging, please.
Blinded by a marital dream,
Don't see the harm we receive.
Spend the midnight hours,
Rummaging through the old,
You say now,
"I could be free. Maybe one day I will be."
Looking down upon you is...
Wretched hands that don't believe,
Who am I to speak,
Except I'm the one who felt it,
Searing. Burning. Cutting flesh.
To the bone. Through the marrow.
Screaming till the throat is ******
I know who I am but I'm not real,
An imaginary character to the sun.
Did I wrap the moon around my..
broken and bruised finger?
Why won't you leave?
I'm begging, please.
Blinded by a marital dream,
Don't see the harm you receive.

Blinded by a setting sun,
8pm on a summer night,
You say to me,
"My, my, look into those eyes."
Looking back at you is the sun,
His eyes are deep down brown.
Why won't you leave?
I'm begging, please.
Blinded by a marital dream,
Don't see the harm we receive.

Looking down upon you is...
Wretched hands that don't believe,

Why won't you leave?
I'm begging, please.
Blinded by a marital dream,
Don't see the harm you receive.
