The sun don't shine anymore
The sun don't shine anymore
Car tu es partie Le ciel semble plus petit
Le ciel semble plus petit
Le ciel semble plus petit
Le ciel semble plus petit
Car tu es partie Je vis sans amour
Car tu es partie Les étoiles ne sont plus là
Les étoiles ne sont plus là
Les étoiles ne sont plus là
Car tu es partie The sun don't shine anymore
The sun don't shine anymore
The sun don't shine anymore
Car tu es partie Je vis sans amour
Car je vis sans toi
Car tu es partie Pour les statues
Comme pour les hommes
Un piédestal est un petit espace
Etroit et honorable
Avec quatre précipices
Tout autour Pour les statues
Comme pour les hommes
Un piédestal est un petit espace
Etroit et honorable
Avec quatre précipices
Tout autour The sun don't shine anymore
The sun don't shine anymore
The sun don't shine anymore
The sun don't shine anymore Pour les statues
Comme pour les hommes
The sun don't shine anymore
Aoaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The lyrics to Les Wampas's song "The Sun Don't Shine" express the pain and despair of missing someone who has left, with a particular focus on the absence of the sun, stars, and love.

The image of the sky seeming smaller without the departed person highlights how their presence was a source of brightness and expansiveness in the singer's life.
The second verse of the song introduces the idea of pedestals, suggesting that both statues and humans are elevated and revered in a way that creates a narrow and precarious space for them. This could be interpreted as a commentary on the fragility of fame and celebrity, or on the pressure to live up to society's expectations. The repetition of the lines about pedestals and precipices creates a sense of tension and vulnerability.
Overall, the lyrics to "The Sun Don't Shine" paint a bleak picture of a world without the person the singer has lost, using vivid imagery and repetition to convey the depth of their pain.
