lyrics

Into the Sun

I want to fly
Straight into the sun
Melt my wings and
Plunge into the blazing heat
Become one with the
Blinding light

I'm white hot fire
Hotter than light
All my cells will
Disappear into the blaze until
There’s no more me, just
Beautiful, beautiful
White hot light

I want to fly
Straight into the sun
Straight into the sun
Straight into the sun...
