A Thousand Suns Songtext
von Michael Kiske

[Music & words: Sander Gommans & Amanda Somerville]

You drove me to play this
It′s not my song
She showed me what I've missed
I should have seen all along

Who pulled the shades down on me?
Now I see that the sky′s been bleeding out
A lake of vermillion drowns me
But who's to say it's not meant to be?

You burned me down
With the power of a thousand suns
Right down to the ground
Now the ashes left are just memories


You pushed me, she pulled me
I landed false
But is it such a bad thing
When love′s to blame for our faults?

Come out with your hands held up
But you′re lying as easy
As you are breathing now
You speak like a loaded gun
And you're aiming at my sympathy

You burned me down
With the power of a thousand suns
Right down to the ground
Now the ashes left are just memories

So long now I′m leaving
It's sure been real
Don′t follow
I don't know just how I feel


You burned me down
With the power of a thousand suns
Right down to the ground
Now the ashes left are just memories
