Solara Lyrics
Burn down the sun
I’m not everyone
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I’m here to stay
They're here today
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I’m nothing but a body in my mind
I feel that something ain’t right
No fear but reasons that I can’t cite
Tear down the sun
Bring down the sun
I’m not everyone
I’m not everyone
I’m not everyone
Unholy sin
Unholy fate
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I’m left to ash
Not here but past
High and dry
Nothing but a body in my mind
I am nothing but a body in my mind
I feel that something ain’t right
No fear but reasons that I can’t cite
Tear down the sun
Bring down the sun
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
I'm not everyone
Burn down the sun
Speculation
Come on, get yourself together
Speculation
Become the owl at midnight
Situation
I am the seer, I am the seeker
Situation
Become the one that fights you
Become the one that fights you
Become the owl at midnight
Become the owl at midnight
High and dry
I'm ash made time
With sun, too bright
I am nothing but a body in my mind
I am nothing but a body in my mind
Tear down the sun
Bring down the sun
I’m not everyone
I’m not everyone
Burn down the sun

Why choose this particular song to reintroduce the band?
Jeff Schroeder via Loudwire:
We didn’t over-intellectualize it and try to write a song that would reintroduce the band. I think that we just played, and I think certain characteristics that are strong points of the band came into play, and so I think that what you hear is very classic Pumpkins, bec...
What's the meaning and origin of "Solara"?
William Patrick Corgan via Loudwire:
I usually don’t talk about song meanings anymore, because somehow in the Internet age that turns into, like, a religion. So I hate to be vague, but I’ve learned my lesson on that. As far as the song’s roots, it actually has roots in the last Smashing Pumpkins al...
