lyrics

Shine on-on
Shine on

Nathan dreamt of giant armies
Marching across the land
He was a boy with a bucket
Making a castle out of sand

Some say dreams are predictions
Some say warnings too
What if it’s a future erased
Instead of a living truth?

Shine on-on
Shine on

Something happened when he looked above
Waiting for the clouds to part
The sun at its highest
Daylight eclipse about to start

Aztecs and Incas saw the portents
Sacrificed to a Sun Lord
Western soldiers without warning
Guns and cannons and the sword

Shine on-on
Shine on

Capture the moment in a photo
Seeing time laid skeletal
Connecting to the last thing we said
I said I was made of metal?

Like ants in fear of shadows
Tsunami memories send us high
Seeing the world turn to flames in the valleys
Reaching out to touch the sky

Shine on-on
Shine on
