← Sickness

/ Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up under a burned-out sky
With a black sun nailed in my chest
Had a mouth full of gasoline
And a shadow that would not rest
Roadside prophets sold me fire
Wrapped in wire
Dressed in gold
I kept driving through the fever
With my hands too hot to hold
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't slow down
Don't look back
Something holy
Painted black
Don't slow down
Don't look back
Something hungry
Burning black
[Chorus]
Black sun
Under me
Black sun
Grinding teeth
No clean mercy
No soft sleep
Black sun
Burning underneath
Black sun
Under me
Black sun
Grinding teeth
No clean mercy
No soft sleep
Black sun
Burning underneath
[Post-Chorus]
Black sun coming
Black sun coming
Black sun coming down
Black sun coming
Black sun coming
Black sun coming down
[Verse 2]
Chrome birds circle the power lines
Singing sparks into the dirt
I saw God in a rearview mirror
With a borrowed face
There was blood on the horizon
There was dust inside my name
Every mile got religion
Every mile lost its face
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't slow down
Don't look back
Something holy
Painted black
Don't slow down
Don't look back
Something hungry
Burning black
