September Sunburn
September Sunburn: Embracing Life's Fires, Facing Fears, and Dreaming Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
So sleep, and feel the warmth against your skin
Encouragement to rest and experience the comforting warmth on the skin.
I feel my patience wearing thin
Expressing impatience and frustration.
While the sunburns setting in
Noting the sunburn as it sets, possibly metaphorical for challenges or hardships.
If you faced your fears at 16 years you'd have nowhere else to turn
Suggesting that facing fears at a young age leaves no alternative paths.
But i struck a match, and let it catch
Igniting a change that becomes a significant part of one's life.
And it became my world
Describing the transformation of the ignited change into one's world.
Sometimes it gets so hard, i'm sure you're well aware
Acknowledging the difficulty of the situation.
But all the anxiety i feel is to remind me this is real
Recognizing anxiety as a reminder of the harsh reality.
Oh, tell me what happened
Prompting a question about a past event or situation.
Cos these are the kinda things you do
Describing actions taken when there is nothing left to prove.
When you've got nothing left to prove
Acceptance of a situation without the need for validation.
Oh, yeah i let it happen
Acknowledging the occurrence of an event, possibly a mistake.
I know i’ll never learn
Accepting a lack of learning from past experiences.
Falling asleep outside, September sunburn
Describing a state of vulnerability or exposure, possibly both physically and emotionally, during a September sunburn.
Baby let me sleep
Requesting undisturbed sleep.
And don't you wake me up from dreaming
Asking not to interrupt a dreamlike state.
Cos i still love the feeling
Expressing enjoyment of a particular feeling.
When everything starts to lose all meaning
Finding value in a situation where everything seems meaningless.
If i faced those fears to end up here
Reflecting on facing fears and considering the outcome as positive.
Id say i turned out fine
Asserting that the speaker has turned out well despite challenges.
I spend my day, i waste away in the sunshine
Describing a day spent idly in the sunshine.
Sometimes it gets so hard, i'm sure you're well aware
Reiterating the difficulty of the situation, possibly emphasizing its persistence.
But all the anxiety i feel is to remind me this is real
Explaining that anxiety serves as a constant reminder of reality.
Oh, tell me what happened
Repeating the question about a past event, seeking an explanation.
Cos these are the kinda things you do
Reinforcing the idea of doing things when there's nothing left to prove.
When you've got nothing left to prove
Acknowledging the acceptance of a situation without the need for validation.
Oh, yeah i let it happen
Confirming the occurrence of an event and acknowledging responsibility.
I know i’ll never learn
Reiterating the lack of learning from past experiences.
Falling asleep outside, September sunburn
Repeating the vulnerability or exposure during a September sunburn.
(i know i’ll never learn, i know i’ll never learn)
Expressing a realization that the speaker will never learn from past experiences.
