Assassination Of The Sun Lyrics - Flaming Lips

As you walked away 

A strand of hair came undone 

And was reflected in the sun 

And everything was orange 

As you disappeared 

The shadow of death came undone 

And was reflected in the sun 

And everything was orange 

They have begun to celebrate 

The tidal wave they think is great 

The ever-beating heart that it wasn't 

They have begun 

They have begun 

They have begun 

To assassinate the sun 

As you died in the night 

A million stars formed into one 

And became another sun 

And everything was orange 

And now this horrible machine 

Churns out pain instead of love 

And looks just like the sun 

And everything was orange 

They have begun 

They have begun 

They have begun 

To assassinate the sun
