Sun Queen
Suburban Tribe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I dream of flying to her
towards the purifying light
Eyes hurt but i just have to look
she is so devine
Sun queen
I look up to the sky
I see you shine and I'm getting so high
Sun queen
I'll touch you in a dream
I feel you're coming soon
erupting slow in full bloom
Manhas tried to tame her heart
by tieing her flame down to the ground
Man always needs to take control
I know she can't be bound
Looking at you
you're a mesmeric view
we are set in slow motion
I feel unreal
like awake in a dream
your eruption is the most exciting scene




I'm burning in heat
reaching my peak
