[Intro] [24 sec dripping tremolo guitar + night insects fading into dawn, distant coyote howl, tape hiss, harsh sunrise feedback swell, no vocals] [Verse 1] [whispered low, gradually rasping, detuned guitars creeping in like heat haze] A fitting time to remind Life turns, both cruel and blind Not every heart will find A love beneath the sun’s design Sun’s design [Verse 2] [slurred and stumbling, breath heavy, cracked falsetto on “unbound”] The sun ascends, serene, unbound While chaos spins the world around Its glow a gift without a sound Yet peace eludes the lost, unfound Unfound [Instrumental] [50 sec sliding bent notes, screen-door snare, glass-bottle roll, distant feedback rising like morning heat, coyote howl echo] [Verse 3] [more broken rasp, emotional weight, cracked falsetto on “run” and “outspun”] Each soul has faced the sun’s bright run Its thankless rays touch every one Loved and loathed, yet never done A force of beauty, rage outspun Rage outspun [Chorus] [slurred building to cracked falsetto plea on “see,” “free,” “dare,” half-whispered desperation turning defiant] Loveless soul, lift eyes to see The sun burns on, both scorned and free The sun burns on Loveless soul, still claim your share The sun’s fierce love lights all who dare All who dare [Outro] [20+ sec feedback swell rising harshly like blazing sun, heartbeat kick fading in, guitar slowly detuning and collapsing into hiss, vocals slurring and fading repeats] Loveless soul The sun burns on Scorned and free Claim your share The sun’s fierce love Lights all who dare ...dare [long decaying feedback tail like endless desert sun, tape hiss swallows everything, distant train whistle fade]
