Cruel Sun Lyrics - Singles - Rusted Root

See the bloody faces lifted to the sky 

Do you want to run to a future left behind? 

I remember asking why, there lies aggression 

Separation where there should be love 

Power plays while the people die 

Let it rain and protect us from this cruel sun 

Let it rain, let it rain, rain and protect us from this cruel sun 

Open up your eyes, you'll feel it better 

Open up your eyes, your eyes and let the child learn 

I remember asking why, there lies aggression 

Separation where there should be love 

Power plays while the people die 

I remember asking why, I remember asking why 

I remember asking why, I remember asking why, why 

Why does war kill only the small man? 

Why does war kill only the small man? 

I think we know, yes, we know 

I think we know, know, know 

Open up your eyes, feel it better 

Open up your eyes, your eyes and let the child learn 

I remember asking why 

I remember asking why 

I remember asking why 

Let it rain, and protect us from this cruel sun 

Let it rain, rain and protect us from this cruel sun 

Let it rain, rain and protect us from this cruel sun 

Let it rain, and protect us from this cruel sun
