Golden Sunrise

[Verse 1]
We're sheltered from the sunlight
In the shade beneath the tree
We hide behind the shadows
Like an orphaned refugee

The apple tree of knowledge
Shed its fruit along the way
The injury is fading
But the hunger's here to stay

Until the day
When there's no memory
Of what we used to be

[Chorus]
Golden sunrise
Burned your eyes
Fillеd your dark skies
Made you blind
Oh

[Verse 2]
The hеads all turn to darkness
When the sun engulfs the sky
The brightness overwhelming
To the unadjusted eye

We're taught to follow blindly
Like there's nothing here to see
A slave to some philosophy
Will somehow make you free

And you will be
So gladly handcuffed
Enlightened from above

[Chorus]
Golden sunrise
Burned your eyes
Filled your dark skies
Made you blind
Oh

[Bridge]
With ignorance a virtue
A question is a sin
Is there no remedy for
The state that we are in?

With knowledge on a leash
It's like a terminal disease
And we won't be awake
To see that we are fading out

[Chorus]
Golden sunrise
Burned your eyes
Filled your dark skies
Made you blind
Oh

[Outro]
Another day in darkness for the ones who've seen the light (Golden sunrise)
Broken eyes are shining in the stillness of the night (Burned your eyes)
They never see the beauty of the world as it is (Filled your dark skies)
Made you blind (Made you blind)
Oh
