Let The Sun Shine
Milk & Sugar f/Lizzy Pattinson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
Somewhere, inside something , there is a rush of greatness
Who knows what stands in front of our lives
Silence tells me secretly ev'rything, ev'rything
Singing my space songs on a spiderweb star
"Life is around you and in you"
Answer for Timothy Leary, deary
Let the sun shine
Let The sunshine in
The sun shine in
Let the sun shine
Let The sunshine in
The sun shine in
Let the sun shine
Let The sunshine in
The sun shine in
Let the sun shine
Let The sunshine in
The sun shine in
The lyrics to Milk & Sugar feat. Lizzy Pattinson's song "Let The Sunshine In" begin by painting a picture of a world that is struggling, a world full of people who are barely surviving. The images are of people who are starving and short of breath, while at the same time they are walking proudly in their winter coats, aware of the smells emanating from laboratories. This dichotomy suggests that the people in this world are trying to maintain their dignity while living in a world that is no longer hospitable to human existence.
The lyrics also describe a nation that is dying, a place where the only solace comes from the fantasies that people create for themselves. But in the midst of all this, there is a hint of hope, a suggestion that somewhere inside all of us there is a rush of greatness waiting to be unleashed. The singer of the song finds inspiration in films about space, and believes that in the silence and vastness of the cosmos, he can find the answers he seeks.
Throughout the song, there is a continuing refrain of "Let the sunshine in" that serves as a call to action. The sun is often seen as a metaphor for hope and renewal, and the repetition of this phrase suggests that the singer sees the light of hope shining through the darkness, and is urging others to see it as well. Ultimately, the song is a plea to the listener to not give up in the face of overwhelming despair, but to keep looking for the sunshine that will lead them back to life.
Line by Line Meaning
We starve, look at one another short of breath
We are deprived and struggling, examining each other with limited oxygen
Walking proudly in our winter coats
We strut confidently in our warm clothing
Wearing smells from laboratories
Our scents are manufactured by technological experiments
Facing a dying nation of moving paper fantasy
We confront a fading society based on fabricated illusions
Listening for the new told lies
We expect to hear the latest untruths
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
We have grand dreams of melancholic music
Somewhere, inside something , there is a rush of greatness
Deep within something is an urgent feeling of excellence
Who knows what stands in front of our lives
No one can predict what obstacles we will encounter
I fashion my future on films in space
I imagine my destiny based on science fiction movies
Silence tells me secretly ev'rything, ev'rything
Quietness reveals everything to me in confidentiality
Singing my space songs on a spiderweb star
I warble my cosmic tunes on a delicate celestial body
"Life is around you and in you"
Existence surrounds you and resides within you

Let the sun's brilliance enter
Let the sun shine
Allow the brilliant radiance to show
Let The sunshine in
Permit the glorious radiance inside
The sun shine in
