Substitutional World Lyrics - Falconer

You stared too long into the sun 

Forgot the rest of the sky 

Don't let the gambler lead you astray 

The truth is slipping further away 

Take a good look up to the sky 

And tell me what do you see 

Isn't there a sun amongst the clouds? 

Then where else could it be 

Substitutional world 

Has become their home for all time 

They will never taste the real 

They live in a cage 

Restricted by their own hands 

They will never feel free 

Have you ever been dazzled 

By the bright morning light? 

Have you ever heard the birds sing? 

Have you ever tasted the gifts of Mother Earth? 

You've burnt all your precious wings 

As you had to touch the sun 

The ashes in your breath 

Is the bitter taste of what you've done 

Substitutional world 

Has become their home for all time 

They will never taste the real 

They live in a cage 

Restricted by their own hands 

They will never feel free 

Substitutional world 

Has become their home for all time 

They will never taste the real 

They live in a cage 

Restricted by their own hands 

They will never feel free 

The higher your lucky star rises 

The deeper you will fall 

Who are you to impersonate God? 

Who are you to know it all? 

As soon as you see tomorrow dawn 

The future unfolds before your eyes 

It's not a sweet dream you dreamed 

It's a nightmare of the world's demise 

You stared too long into the sun 

Forgot the rest of the sky 

Don't let the gambler lead you astray 

The truth is slipping further away 

Take a good look up to the sky 

And tell me what do you see 

Isn't there a sun amongst the clouds? 

Then where else could it be 

Substitutional world 

Has become their home for all time 

They will never taste the real 

They live in a cage 

Restricted by their own hands 

They will never feel free 

Substitutional world 

Has become their home for all time 

They will never taste the real 

They live in a cage 

Restricted by their own hands 

They will never feel free
