Lou Reed(born March 2, 1942) is an American rock and roll singer-songwriter, originally from Brooklyn, New York. Especially while a member of the The Velvet Undergroundin the 1960s, Reed broke new ground for the rockgenre in several important dimensions, influencing the rock and rollmovement in general, introducing more mature and intellectual themes to what was then considered a music genre for children and teenagers. Reed first found prominence as the guitarist and principal singer-songwriter of The Velvet Underground. The band, which lasted from 1965 until 1973 (with Reed departing in late 1970 during the Loaded sessions), gained relatively little notice during its life but is often considered the seed from which most alternative traditions of rock music sprang.

Fly Into The Sun Lyrics
Lou Reed
I would not run from the holocaust
I would not run from the bomb
Id welcome the chance to meet my maker
And fly into the sun
Fly into the sun
Fly into the sun
Id break up into million pieces
And fly into the sun
I would not run from the blazing light
I would not run from its rain
Id see it as an end to misery
As an end to worldly pain
An end to worldly pain
An end to worldly pain
Id shine by the light of the unknown moment
To end this worldly pain
And fly into the sun
Fly into the sun
Id shine by the light of the unknown moment
And fly into the sun
The earth is weeping, the sky is shaking
The stars split to their core
And every proton and unnamed neutron
Is fusing in my bones
And an unnamed mammal is darkly rising
As man burns from his tomb
And I look at this as a blissful moment
To fly into the sun
Fly into the sun
Fly into the sun
Id burn up into a million pieces
And fly into the sun
To end this mystery
Answer my mystery
Id look at this as a wondrous moment
To end this mystery
Fly into the sun
Fly into the sun
Id break up into a million pieces
And fly into the sun
