The Levellers — Red Sun Burns lyrics

Lyrics

She took the world up She was higher than the sun
She didn’t have a need
She didn’t really want for anyone
She didn’t ask for any of this
She painted in the dark
Truth turned into light
Men came in the night
And they set her world alight
She didn’t ask for any of this
But the red sun burns
Brighter in the night
Red sun burns
To make you feel alright
But everywhere you go There’s still not enough
For everyone
They left her in the ash
Tears lay in her eyes
She swore no one would take
More than they could create
She didn’t ask for any of this
She took the world on She was higher than the sun
She didn’t have a need
She didn’t really want for anyone
And she didn’t ask for any of this
But the red sun burns
Brighter in the night
Red sun burns
To make you feel alright
But everywhere you go Here’s still not enough
For everyone
