Summersun
Miami Horror Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's how it was?
Keep holding on to everything
Reflecting on yourself with them
I don't wanna fall too far from you
If you wanna be the one to go
Everybody wants to take something home
In the Summersun I can't reveal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I will conceal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I can't reveal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I will conceal
We go on and on
on-oh-ah and on and on and on
on-oh-ah, on and on and on
on-oh-ah and on and on and on
on-oh-ah, on and on and on
In the Summersun I can't reveal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I will conceal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I can't reveal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I will conceal
We go on and on
Ooh its (never worked with fireworks?)
today (the field has sang again?)
But you're something so faint
And I don't want the seasons (to) change again
Keep holding on to everything
That's how it was?
Keep holding on to everything
Reflecting on yourself with them
I don't wanna fall too far from you
If you wanna be the one to go
Everybody wants to take something home
on-oh-ah and on and on and on
on-oh-ah, on and on and on
on-oh-ah and on and on and on
on-oh-ah, on and on and on
In the Summersun I can't reveal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I will conceal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I can't reveal
We go on and on
In the Summersun I will conceal
We go on and on
on and on and on
on and on and on (everything's changed again)
on and on and on (and everything's changed again)
on and on and on
The lyrics of Miami Horror's song 'Summersun' are about holding onto memories and relationships that once were, while simultaneously acknowledging that they might not have the same significance or power as they did before. The lines "Keep holding on to everything, that's how it was?" suggest that the singer is aware that they are clinging onto the past, but they don't know how else to approach it. Additionally, the repetition of "We go on and on" shows that this cycle of reflecting and holding on repeats itself endlessly. The lyrics "'I don't wanna fall too far from you/ If you wanna be the one to go/Everybody wants to take something home" could be interpreted as an admission that the meaningful connections we have with others are often temporary, yet we still want to hold onto a piece of them and never truly let go.
The repetitive nature of the chorus emphasizes the cyclical nature of nostalgia and the difficulty of moving on from the past. The repeated phrase "In the Summersun, I can't reveal" shows that while the singer is reflecting on this past relationship/memory, they are unable to fully express their emotions or articulate what it is they want or need. The lyrics "But you're something so faint/ And I don't want the seasons (to) change again" suggest a fear of losing what little remains of a past relationship/memory and not wanting to move on from it, even if it's only a shadow of what it once was.
