The sun goes down The lights go out You go to sleep And dream about What you want to be When you're grown
Every day They steal your prayers You keep your secret Hidden from them far away And you never share What you know
Dream what you are You sunflower Be what you are You sunflower
Your father said It's in your head He knew someone Who knew someone Who wound up dead We all wind up dead We all wind up dead And you know The shadows start To steal your heart They get inside And piece by piece They tear apart Your very soul And your very art And you know
So turn and face the sun again Dream what you are You sunflower Rise up and face the sun again Be what you are You sun flower
We always run Towards the sun You lead us on And cut us down you cannot run From the damage done And there's damage done And you know
We'll turn and face the sun again Dream what you are You sunflower Rise up and face the sun again Be what you are You sunflower So turn and face the sun again Dream what you are You sunflower Rise up and face the sun again Be what you are You sunflower
