SUNSET
Compuphonic feat. Marques Toliver Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Live like your driving me crazy
you tell me it ain't real
but its my biggest fear

It's about that time
time for me to unwind
you can break it down on the dance floor
I saw love coming from a far
it fell down helplessly
started speak to my heart
but it was unclear to see
it spoke of a journey to sun
and the sun said "come seek thee"
but the message was far too strong
and the sun started dying

Live like your driving me crazy
you tell me it ain't real
but its my biggest fear
your not here

Wake from my dreams and your not here, here, here...

It's about that time
time for me to unwind
you can break it down on the dance floor

I saw love coming from a far
it fell down helplessly
started speak to my heart
but it was unclear to see
it spoke of a journey to sun
and the sun said "come seek thee"
but the message was far too strong
and the sun started dying

Yeah your burning up
everybody knows

It's about that time
time for me to unwind
baby break it down on the dancefloor

Started speaking to my heart
but it wasn't clear to see





Spoke of a journey to the sun

Overall Meaning

"Sunset" by Compuphonic feat. Marques Toliver is an emotional song about love, loss, and the fear of being left behind. The lyrics depict a person who is afraid of losing someone special to them, and how they try to hold on to their love while dealing with the pain of their inevitable departure. The song also talks about the struggle to find clarity and understanding in a relationship that may not be fully realized.


The opening lines of the song, "Live like you're driving me crazy, you tell me it ain't real, but it's my biggest fear," set the tone for the rest of the lyrics. The person is trying to hold on to their love, but they know that it may not be real or lasting. They are afraid of being left behind, and this fear is driving them crazy. This theme is repeated in the chorus, where the person sings, "Live like you're driving me crazy, you tell me it ain't real, but it's my biggest fear," reinforcing their feelings of love and loss.


The rest of the lyrics describe a journey of sorts, where the person is trying to find their true love and understand their feelings. They see love "coming from a far," falling down helplessly, and speaking to their heart. However, the message is unclear, and the sun starts to die. This metaphor of the sun dying is symbolic of the person's fear of losing their love and being left alone. The chorus repeats again, revealing the true feeling behind the song.


Overall, "Sunset" is a sad, yet powerful song about the fear of love and loss. The lyrics are beautifully written and capture the emotional depth of the human experience.
