Sunset
Internet (The) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mind's in disarray
So are my clothes
As I undress
And pick an outfit for this sunny day
Cause it's okay
I attempt
Cause it's okay
Cause as long as the sun is rising
We can get up, and brighten
Somebody's day
I'm shinin' bright as the rays
Inside my soul
So, maybe you feel it
Maybe you don't
Maybe you love it
Maybe you won't
Maybe the sunshine isn't enough
To heal your pain
So, maybe you play
Or maybe you fold
Baby you stay
Baby go
Maybe you touch me
I'll be afloat
Or maybe we'll stop somewhere down the road
Put on some headphones, sit at my home
Watchin' the sun set
Shed its good light on me, yeah
I obsess
Over things that shouldn't matter
But they do
And it affects me
In the worst possable way
But it's okay
We forget
What a big part all the little things can play
And that's okay
Cause as long as the sun is rising
We can get up, and brighten
Somebody's day
I'm shinin' bright as the rays
Inside my soul
The song "Sunset" by the band Internet (The) is a reflective piece about life's ups and downs. The lyrics describe a person who is feeling disordered in their mind and their messy appearance reflects their inner turmoil. However, despite the chaos, the song's narrator tries to hold onto their optimism and sees the bright side in each new day. They note that even though life may not always be easy, the sun continues to rise and the new opportunities it brings can help to brighten someone's day. The sun is a metaphor for hope and the beauty of life.
The song also acknowledges that not everyone can find solace in the sunshine. Each person has their own unique experience with pain and sorrow, and what works for one person may not work for another. Sometimes we need to let go of our obsessions with the little things that weigh us down and remember the beauty in the world around us. The song recognizes that life is a journey with many paths, and sometimes we must learn to let go and relax, enjoying the simple pleasure of watching a sunset or listening to a favorite song.

Life's a mess
Life is chaotic and unorganized
Mind's in disarray
My thoughts are scattered and unorganized
So are my clothes
My clothing is also disorganized and messy
As I undress
As I take off my clothes
And pick an outfit for this sunny day
I choose what to wear for the nice weather
Cause it's okay
It's alright to be disorganized
I attempt
I try hard
Not to let my optimism slip away
I try to remain positive
Cause it's okay
It's alright to struggle with optimism
Cause as long as the sun is rising
As long as there is hope
We can get up, and brighten
We can get up and make things better
Somebody's day
We can make someone else's day better
I'm shinin' bright as the rays
I am positive and radiant
Inside my soul
In my inner self
So, maybe you feel it
You may feel it too
Maybe you don't
Or maybe you don't
Maybe you love it
Or maybe you enjoy it
Maybe you won't
Or maybe you won't enjoy it
Maybe the sunshine isn't enough
Maybe positivity is not enough for everyone
To heal your pain
To make you feel better
So, maybe you play
Maybe you keep going
Or maybe you fold
Or maybe you give up
Baby you stay
Maybe you keep going
Baby go
Maybe you leave
Maybe you touch me
Maybe you connect with me
I'll be afloat
I will feel better
Or maybe we'll stop somewhere down the road
Or maybe we will come to a halt later
Put on some headphones, sit at my home
Listen to music and relax
Watchin' the sun set
Observing the sunset
Shed its good light on me, yeah
Feeling positive and happy
I obsess
I get too attached to things
Over things that shouldn't matter
Over things that are not important
But they do
But they still affect me
And it affects me
It impacts me mentally
In the worst possible way
Negatively
But it's okay
But it's alright to feel that way
We forget
We fail to remember
What a big part all the little things can play
The small things can make a big difference
And that's okay
It's alright to forget sometimes
