Ode To The Sun
dredg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's gone from light to gray
But I'll move those clouds away
Letting the sun shine through
In this ode to you

Let the demons have their place
If so it's angels you'll create
And disguised within the dark
Light will wait
My heart I owe you my soul

Will you please accept
Please accept this honor
This is all for you
Transcend

We flip towards the sun
Wheels skidding on the road
A flowing sea of red
The whole city groans
My heart I owe you my soul

Will you please accept
Please accept this honor
This is all for you
Transcend

Will you please accept
Please accept this honor
This is all for you
Transcend

Fiasco!

Rubberneck passing motorist
Mangled till cankerous
Repair this tattered skin
Hold it in your hand

You've already glistened through the window
You've already set us all free...free...free

Please accept
Please accept this honor
This is all for you
Transcend

Will you please accept
Please accept this honor
This is all for you
Transcend

Fiasco!

Line by Line Meaning

It's gone from light to gray
The day has turned dull and dreary


But I'll move those clouds away
I'll make an effort to change the situation


Letting the sun shine through
Allowing brightness to enter one's life


In this ode to you
This expression is a tribute to someone special


Let the demons have their place
Allow negative thoughts to exist


If so it's angels you'll create
Conversely, positivity may arise


And disguised within the dark
Goodness may be hidden among unpleasantness


Light will wait
Hope exists and will emerge eventually


My heart I owe you my soul
I feel greatly indebted to the person in question


Will you please accept
Would you kindly acknowledge


Please accept this honor
Please recognize my tribute to you


This is all for you
This gesture is for your sake only


Transcend
Rise above negativity and embrace positivity


We flip towards the sun
We move to face the source of light


Wheels skidding on the road
Tires screech against the pavement


A flowing sea of red
A multitude of cars congested on the street


The whole city groans
The urban landscape is plagued by noise and chaos


Fiasco!
An expression of frustration or exasperation


Rubberneck passing motorist
A curious driver who slows down to gawk


Mangled till cankerous
Damaged or broken until it's diseased


Repair this tattered skin
Fix this damaged exterior


Hold it in your hand
Grasp and examine it


You've already glistened through the window
You've already caught my attention


You've already set us all free...free...free
You've already liberated us from negativity and fear
