Sun sets on the nations Worlds in her disguise Pray for all that matters Saviour in my eyes Children of the sun Dying one by one Eden has been wasted Deadly poison fills the air Kneel down in forgiveness While there's still time if you care Children of the sun Dying one by one Children of the sun Dying one by one I couldn't dream To be without her kind They wouldn't let her be Or heal what she defiled You are the hate that beats mankind Torturous lies that lead the blind Squandered the truth from all we said You are the reason I feel dead Mountains start to crumble Tumble in the sea Children of the sun Dying one by one Children of the sun Dying one by one Children of the sun Dying one by one Children of the sun Dying one by one

I've left the world behind I am safe there, in my mind Free to speak with my own kind This is my life, this is my life I'll decide, not you Keep the world with all its sin It's not fit for living in Yeah! I will start again It can take forever and ever and ever and ever But I shall win How many like him are there still Who to us all seem to have lost the will? They lie in thousands, blank and lost Is knowledge worth this bitter cost? Yeah! I've left the world behind I am safe there, in my mind Free to speak with my own kind This is my life, this is my life I'll decide, not you Keep the world with all its sin It's not fit for living in Beyond the realms of death
