Sun is a song from Silent Hill 3 and is track 22 in the Silent Hill 3 soundtrack. It is a collection of the teachings held by the Order about God's creation and humanity's salvation.
In Silent Hill 3, Heather Mason comes across paintings hung in the church that accompany the separate myths. In it, there is also mention of the two angels Xuchilbara and Lobsel Vith, other key figures in the Silent Hill mythos.
The lyrics to the song are a summary of the memos related to these key figures and are read by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn.
A vocal-less instrumental version was released on the Silent Hill Sounds Box, titled "No Excuses".
Lyrics[]
In the beginning, people had nothing
Their bodies ached, and their hearts held nothing but hatred
They fought endlessly, but death never came
They despaired, stuck in the eternal quagmire
A man offered a serpent to the sun and prayed for salvation
A woman offered a reed to the sun and asked for joy
Feeling pity for the sadness that had overrun the earth, God was born from those two people
God made time and divided it into day and night
God outlined the road to salvation and gave people joy
And God took endless time away from the people
God created beings to lead people in obedience to Her
The red God, Xuchilbara
The yellow God, Lobsel Vith
Many Gods and Angels
Finally, God set out to create Paradise, where people would be happy just by being there
But there, God's strength ran out, and She collapsed
All the world's people grieved this unfortunate event
Yet God breathed Her last
She returned to the dust, promising to come again
So God hasn't been lost
We must offer our prayers and not forget our faith
We wait in hope for the day
When the path to Paradise will be opened
