Sunrise
Alex Sonata ft LJ Ayrten Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Night, the night was so long
We felt so alone
But it's time to move on
Day, it's where you're belong
The shadows are gone
Now look for the sun

Open up your eyes, will you see the sunrise (×2)

Open up your eyes
I'm with you this time
I stand by your side
Leave the night behind
Skies used to fight
Will you see the sunrise
Will you see the sunrise





Open up your eyes
Will you see the sunrise

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Alex Sonata ft LJ Ayrten’s song Sunrise tells the story of hope and moving on from the previous night’s sorrows. The first two lines, “Night, the night was so long. We felt so alone”, says the feelings of despair and loneliness brought about by a long night of darkness. However, the lyrics continue to emphasize that it is time to move on and embrace the new day, with “Day, it's where you're belong. The shadows are gone. Now look for the sun”. This means that the day is where one’s life should be, as the darkness and negative aspects are gone, and it’s time to look for positivity and hope.


In the chorus, the lyrics say “Open up your eyes, will you see the sunrise”, which is an encouragement to look at the brighter side of things, and to see the opportunities presented by the new day. The pre-chorus and second verse, “Open up your eyes. I’m with you this time. I stand by your side. Leave the night behind. Skies used to fight. Will you see the sunrise. Will you see the sunrise”, express an assurance of support and companionship from someone, urging the listener to leave the night – the past and its struggles – behind and to focus on the present, where new possibilities lie.


Overall, “Sunrise” is a motivational song that inspires its listeners to move forward, to find the courage and strength to leave the darkness and find comfort in the light.
