Analysis of Under The Under (I Am The Sun)
JESSE JAMES EDWARD STEVENSON 1984 (Langley)
I AM THE SUN
I HAVE I HAVE TO COME
I LIVE ALONE
I HAVE NO HOME
I AM MY THRONE
AND ALONE AND STREWN
I LIVE IN NOME
I'M NOAH'S HOME
SEE THE LARK
AND THE ARC DEPARTS
I SEE THE STARS
THE HEART AND PART
OF HARDENED SCARS
I GIVE NOTHING TAKE NOTHING
LIVE UNDER THE UNDER
GIVE THUNDER
THE SUN
I HAVE THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I TAKE WHAT I HAVE
TAKE WHAT I WANT
SNAKE IN THE GRASS
CAN NOT HUNT
THE LAKE AND GIRAFFE TAKES IT'S BATH
AND SHAKES AND LAUGHS IN THE GRASS
I MAKE MY HALF YOU MAKE YOURS HALF
I MAKE MY SPACE YOU MAKE MY FATE
MY PLACE MY SPACE YOU MAKE MY HATE
MAKE MY SPACE YOU TAKE THE LAKE AND SPACE
I'LL WAIT FOR THE HATE
WAIT FOR THE HATE
WAIT FOR THE HATE
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
I AM THE SUN
