Mr. BigYellowSun
Cosmopaark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Filled with nothing
What′s happened if you show it?
Big yellow sun
What's happened if you hide it?
What if you run?
And tomorrow too
But if today it's raining
So enjoy the view
Tired of walking
Nowhere I'm going
But How did you get lost?
Big yellow sun
And How can you stay here?
What if you run?
But if today you′re losing
And tomorrow too
But if today you′re losing
So what can I do?
So what can I do?
So what can I do?
The lyrics in Cosmopaark's song "Mr. BigYellowSun" touch on themes of weariness, confusion, and perseverance in the face of adversity. The singer in the lyrics is "tired of thinking", suggesting mental exhaustion and a feeling of being overwhelmed by one's own thoughts. Similarly, the singer is "tired of walking" and feels as though they are "nowhere...going", indicating a sense of physical fatigue and aimlessness.
The chorus of the song asks rhetorical questions about the titular "big yellow sun". What happens if we show our difficulties to the sun, or hide them? What if we choose to run from our problems? The sun is often seen as a metaphor for hope and optimism, and these lines suggest that the singer is grappling with how to approach their challenges.
The second half of the chorus takes a turn towards acceptance and gratitude, advising listeners to "enjoy the view" even on rainy days or when things are going poorly. Similarly, the final lines of the song ask a question ("what can I do?") that suggests a willingness to persevere, even in the face of uncertainty.
Overall, "Mr. BigYellowSun" can be interpreted as an uplifting song about resilience, encouraging listeners to keep going and find beauty in the world even when it seems challenging.
