Levellers – Red Sun Burns lyrics
She took the world up
She was higher than the sky
She didn't have a need
She didn't really want for anyone
He didn't ask for any of this

She painted in the dark
Truth turned into light
But men came in the night
To set her world alight
She didn't ask for any of this

But the red sun burns
Brighter in the night
Red sun burns
Can make you feel all right
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
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
Can make you feel all right
But everywhere you go
Here's still not enough
For everyone
