Summer Sun
De/Vision Lyrics

Sun Summer Sun
I won't be long

Everything's in a permanent
State of flux
Enjoy yourself
To the full
We are obsessed
With transitory pictures
Out of sight
Out of mind

Mind the wind, my love




The path to
salvation is tough

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of De/Vision's Summer Sun explore the transience of human existence against the backdrop of an ephemeral summer. The opening line "Sun Summer Sun, I won't be long" is a metaphorical allusion to the fleeting nature of summer, which is considered as a metaphor for human life that too is transient. The line "Everything's in a permanent State of flux" further underscores this idea in highlighting the constant state of change and flux that characterizes human life.


The lyrics arguably call upon the listener to embrace life's fleeting moments and derive enjoyment from them in the present moment, as represented by the line: "Enjoy yourself To the full." The following line "We are obsessed With transitory pictures" points to the inescapable human tendency to capture moments with pictures and videos so they can be immortalized forever than living in the moment as it is.


Further, in the lyrics "Out of sight Out of mind," the band seems to be pointing out the moral of letting go of life's transient moments and experiences since once they are gone, they vanish from our memory just as easily. The closing lines of "Mind the wind, my love The path to salvation is tough" leaves an open-end interpretation that the band may be hinting to the listener to be mindful of life's fleeting nature and take life with a grain of salt. Despite the fact that salvation is a tricky concept, some sort of enlightened perspective on this ephemeral life is indeed needed to lead a life that is not just an illusion in the end.
