Cruel Sun Lyrics

The song Cruel Sun is performed by Rusted Root in the album named When I Woke in the year 1994 .



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
