(Verse 1)
Starlit nights used to make us wonder
If it's right to fear the distant thunder
But we think of what told the prophecy
Blood red ink shall write our history

(Chorus)
And we live under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway

(Verse 2)
Breathe the air you'll get drunk with anger
And despair but we won't surrender
Bear my friends this uncertainty
In the end will we die in pain or break free

(Chorus)
We live under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway

(Chorus)
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
In our good but bygone days
Under sanctimonious sun
Won't resist what's holding sway
Over where we once belonged
What was once our hideaway
