Way Out
Sunnata Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thoughts are forsaken
Why am I waiting?
Who am I serving?
Clouds are unveiling
What am I chasing?
Way out
Raise eyes
Forge your forgiveness for a day to begin
Way out
When sky is reddened and never the same
Way out
Becoming outrageous and carving the flesh
Way out
The blood has been spilt and will cover the crown
Way out
Burning in heaven but melting on earth
And I am still changing
Beliefs are craving
I am still waiting
I am still chasing
Marks are tangling
I am still chasing
Way out
The worlds are now falling on us
Raise eyes
Forge your forgiveness for a day to begin
Way out
When sky is reddened and never the same
Way out
Becoming outrageous and carving the flesh
Way out
The blood has been spilt and will cover the crown
Way out
Burning in heaven but melting on earth
My hope
Falling
Run away, go
Soaring

The references to heaven and earth, burning and melting, further highlight the contrasting sensations at play.
