Under the Sun
Me Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're all the same under the sun 
We're all to blame when it goes wrong
We can't live this way 
It's going down the drain

Who are you to tell me the truth
I don't believe a word you say
It's just different opinions 
You're just one in a million 

We're mute and blind, but I can remember a time
When we could all look up to a bright blue sky
Now it's deafening, the noise and the screams
It's just deafening! 

Being indifferent, maybe it's comforting 
Open your mind, it's humbling 
Being indifferent, maybe it's comforting 
Open your mind, it's humbling 
It's humbling 

The future's in the palm of our hands
Won't be consigned to oblivion 
But in the reign of mad men
We're waking up to sirens 

Dark days (dark days)
Black nights (black nights)
Bring back (bring back)
The light (the light)
I'll take you through the coldest night
I'll fight for you

We're mute and blind, but I can remember a time
When we could all look up to a bright blue sky
Now it's deafening, the noise and the screams
It's just deafening

Being indifferent, maybe it's comforting 
Open your mind, it's humbling 
Being indifferent, maybe it's comforting 
Open your mind, it's humbling 
It's humbling 

It's just deafening
It's humbling 

Being indifferent, maybe it's comforting 
Open your mind, it's humbling 




Being indifferent, maybe it's comforting 
Open your mind, it's humbling 

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Me's song "Under the Sun" touch on themes of unity, blame, indifference, and the chaos of the world we live in. The first two lines, "We're all the same under the sun / We're all to blame when it goes wrong," suggest that despite our differences, we are all equal and share responsibility for the problems in society. The singer acknowledges that we can't continue living in this destructive way, as the situation is spiraling downward.


The next few lines express skepticism towards someone claiming to know the truth, highlighting the existence of different opinions. The line "You're just one in a million" implies that everyone's perspective matters, even if it feels insignificant amidst the vast population.


The lyrics then reflect on a time when people could admire a clear blue sky, symbolizing a more peaceful and harmonious period. However, the present is characterized by overwhelming noise, screams, and chaos. This could be a metaphor for the constant barrage of information, conflicts, and negative events that surround us in the modern world.


The chorus emphasizes the need to break free from indifference and open our minds. Being indifferent may offer temporary comfort, but it's humbling to consider different perspectives and be aware of the world around us.


The mention of the future being in our hands suggests that we have the power to shape it, but there is a presence of "mad men" ruling over us. This implies the frustration of waking up to alarms or sirens, representing the urgency and danger that we face in the current state of affairs.


In conclusion, "Under the Sun" prompts listeners to reflect on the shared responsibility for the problems in our society and the importance of breaking free from indifference and opening our minds to bring about positive change.
