Lyrics

They hold the sun in time

Breathe away their souls tryin' to be in the right side

Struggling to find their true selves, attempting to align with righteousness or a better path.

They gave up their lives

Maybe is the only way to keep the flesh in calm

The sun comes down and their weak knees
