sunrise
Hannah Telle Lyrics

The lyrics of Hannah Telle's song "Sunrise" paint the picture of two individuals who are inexplicably drawn to each other. The first lines, "I've been waiting for you / And now the lights are low" imply that this waiting has been long and perhaps frustrating, but now that they're together, the atmosphere is just right. The second line, "Smoke will blind / and mirrors lie to you" suggests that these two are caught up in a moment of passion, but maybe it's not entirely real. They're at risk of getting caught up in the illusions of the moment and losing themselves in each other.

Despite this risk, both parties are too far gone to turn back. The lines "Bleeding blooms / In alleyways we grow" indicate that they are flourishing despite the less-than-ideal circumstances. They are thriving despite being in a potentially dangerous or difficult situation. The chorus brings the idea of time into the mix - "Somehow I'll get you all alone / Time flies and one day we'll be gone." The first line of the chorus demonstrates that there is a sense of urgency between these two, and it's clear that they both want to be alone together. However, the second line of the chorus reminds us that whatever happens between them, it is fleeting. At some point, they will be separated. The final line of the chorus is interesting because it emphasizes that while this moment may end, the memories will survive - but not without pain. "The memory is mine / The burning bridge is yours" implies that whatever happens between these two will be significant enough to leave behind pain and destruction.
