On the street of villains taken for a ride
You can have the devil as a guide
Crippled by the boundaries, programmed into guilt

Til your nervous system starts to tilt
In a room of mirrors you can see for miles
But everything that's there is in disguise

Every word you've uttered and every thought you've had
Is all inside your file the good and the bad


But in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
Universe at play inside your DNA
You're a billion years old today

Oh the rising sun and the place it's coming from
Is inside of you and now your payment's overdue
Oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun


On the avenue of sinners I have been employed
Working there til I was near destroyed

I was almost a statistic inside a doctor's case
When I heard the messenger from inner space
He was sending me a signal that for so long I had ignored

But he held on to my umbilical cord
Until the ghost of memory trapped in my body mind
Came out of hiding to become alive


And in the rising sun you can hear your life begin
And it's here and there nowhere and everywhere

Though it's atmosphere is rare
Oh the rising sun and the place that it's coming from
Is inside of me and now I feel it constantly

Oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun

And in the rising sun you can feel your life begin

Universe at play inside your DNA
You're a billion years old today
Oh the rising sun and the place it's coming from

Is inside of you, now your payment's overdue
Oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun
Oh the rising sun, ooh
