Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
Embracing the Shadows: A Journey Through Life's Ladder
Lyrics
I can't light no more of your darkness
Feeling unable to bring light to your life anymore.
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
Memories losing vibrancy, becoming dull and lifeless.
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Sense of weariness, feeling stuck in time.
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Feeling immobilized at a critical point in life.
Too late to save myself from falling
Realizing it's too late to prevent personal downfall.
I took a chance and changed your way of life
Took a risk to change someone's life.
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Misunderstood intentions led to being shut out.
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Left feeling confused and blinded by rejection.
Don't let the sun go down on me
Pleading not to lose support or love.
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
Struggling with self-identity, seeing others in oneself.
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
Willing to give up a part of oneself for freedom.
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Equating loss with the fading of one's inner light.
I can't find, oh, the right romantic line
Difficulty in expressing genuine romantic feelings.
But see me once and see the way feel
Asking for understanding beyond appearances.
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
Pleading not to be judged based on misunderstood intentions.
But these cuts I have, oh, they need love to help them heal
Desire for love and care to heal emotional wounds.
Don't let the sun go down on me
Repeating the plea to maintain connection or love.
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
Continued struggle with self-perception.
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
Willingness to release a part of oneself for independence.
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Relating loss to the diminishing of personal light.
Don't let the sun go down on me
Repeated plea to avoid losing support or connection.
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
Continued struggle with self-identity and perception.
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free, yeah
Desire for personal freedom despite potential loss.
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Comparing loss to the fading of personal light.
