The Man Who Swallowed The Sun

Music: Viktor Jonas | lyrics: Viktor Jonas

Night falls, as I’ve slained the sun
and I slumber, in a midwinter haze - so cold and dark
Embracing me as if in a womb

Let this night never be over
Don't let me wake up to another morning
Let me dwell in the shadows
Never to see the burning light of day
Let this night never be over
I've seen it all, I've felt it all
Nothing can bring me back now

I fall yet again, into this midwinter haze
But the pain still lingers
Inside of me, like a sickness
Oh night, embrace me again,
spare me from this disease
Let me float in the comfort of your womb, forever!

I am the man who swallowed the sun
And painted the sky in black

Oh night, embrace me again,
spare me from this disease
Let me float in the comfort of your womb
Let me slumber in the midwinter haze - so cold and dark
Let me dwell in the shadows
Never to wake up
Never to see the sun
