Sun in Your Eyes Lyrics

You've fallen once, you'll fall again
And lean on
Your tired hands that crawl and grasp
The soft ground
By the look on your face
You set out on a path
Never to arrive
By the look on your face
The burden's on your back
And the sun is in your eyes

Stretched out, far and wide
The light that scorched the sand
So bright, so long
I'm never coming back

And every stone and every step
I won't recall
Emptied out of every thought
Just soft ground
By the look on your face
The burden's on your back
And the sun in your eyes

Gone at last
Stretched out, far and wide
The light that scorched the sand
So bright, so long
I'm never coming back

It overflows, it overflows, it always runs
It overflows, it overflows, it always runs
Silver and silent
Endless abundance overflows

Silver and silent rushing on
Endless abundance overflows
Always surround you, always glows
Oooohhh

Look on your face,
Burden's on your back
Sun is in your eyes

Stretched out, far and wide
The light that scorched the sand
So bright, so long
I'm never coming back
So bright, so long
I'm never coming back

It's inspired by an ayahuasca trip, ayahuasca is a plant that contains DMT and basically makes you dream while you are awake, most people that come out of an ayahuasca trip feel much better with themselves, they refer to it as "Reborn"
