Under the sun

The light through the crack in the window
Blinded my eyes
But it showed me a world full of pain
I had not realized
Cold wind to my back
And destiny stands on the rise
One road of angels and truth
One of devils and lies

And everything comes and everything goes
There's nothing new under the sun
You know that you reap whatever you sow
It's no mystery to anyone under the sun

Shattered illusions of love
Blinded my eyes
But the tears and the pain
And the scars that remain made me wise
I remember the trace of a face
Against the sunrise
Heaven is only as far away as the crow flies

And everything comes and everything goes
There's nothing new under the sun
You know that you reap whatever you sow
It's no mystery to anyone under the sun

Old man with a sign on the corner
Opened my eyes
Preaching Apocalypse
He began to prophesize
Like a voice in the wilderness
Nobody noticed his cries
But the truth in the words that I heard
Caused my spirit to rise, rise

And everything comes and everything goes
There's nothing new under the sun
You know that you reap whatever you sow
It's no mystery to anyone under the sun
