Unsafe
Unsure and screaming
I turn and face the sun
Burning with a beutiful rage
Turn away, turn away
Weave--(in the fields of time I've lain...)
--and spin (...to crawl the inner plane)
Weave--(awakened crystal pain...)
--and spin(...through and down by a...
SENT
Sent down low--(....wall. it comes in waves...)
--scar my soul(free and invisible)
BREAK
Break this peace(mother crawled away)
Seal the blow(to see the star)
THIS
This is where--(feel the calm and blow...)
--I've come to bear(...and the procession)
WITNESS
Witness to--(bodies fall away...)
--my fate anew(...spirits burn)
TRAPPED
Trapped inside I--(drawn in and praying in waste...)
--abide this ordeal(...sent out and smashing down)
I
I endure this place--(distant sounds pass by...)
--and this pain(....etching this tunnel)
I go on, I go on(etching this tunnel)
I go on, I go on(etching this tunnel)
I go on, I go on(etching this tunnel)
I go on, I go on(etching this tunnel)
I am my will
Unsure and screaming
I turn and face the sun
Burning with a beutiful rage

I have little idea of what this song is about. This is definitely my favorite song by Neurosis. I think this song my have to do with how Neurosis feels about the sun and what its meaning is to them and how it may be a force that gives light and energy they feel that they don't to face the sun. The band Neurosis said that they will never have a concert when the sun is out because they will never face it. I'm not sure, though. Neurosis's songs have very deep poetic meaning.
I think your comment explains why they're called "Neurosis".
There's connection with Buddhism conception in this song. You can clearly see it at the end. We are souls trapped in our bodies. My fate anew = reincarnation.
