Sunday
Nut/Meg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Setting up Sunday
Watching the winter grow
So old
No
Oh, we're making excuses
For insecurities
It's not about me
It's never about me

Now I can't go on
I'm lost and alone
Now we're lovers gone
I'm lost and alone

Kid, I'm right here
And I'm not leaving
There's no way to make you stay
But I'm saving all my worries for that day you don't need me

Selling out Monday
Watching the children grow
So Cold
No
Oh, they're weighing our hands down
Our human frailities
It's not about me
It's never about me

Now I can't go on
I'm lost and alone
Now we're lovers gone
I'm lost and alone

Kid, I'm right here
And I'm not leaving
There's no way to make you stay
But I'm saving all my worries for the day you don't need me

Kid, I'm right here
It's now morning
There's no way
Please stay
Stay

Setting up Sunday




Watching their hearts in soil
Go mold

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nut/Meg's song Sunday explore themes of insecurity and fear of abandonment, set against the backdrop of the changing seasons. The song begins with the singer describing the process of "setting up Sunday" and "watching the winter grow." Despite the beauty of the season, there is a sense of melancholy and age, symbolized by the line "so old." The singer then turns to introspection, recognizing that they are "making excuses" for their insecurities, which are taking center stage. It's important to note that the singer recognizes that their insecurities are not actually about themselves, but rather a projection of their own fears and struggles.


As the song progresses, the sense of loneliness and fear of abandonment grows stronger. The singer describes feeling "lost and alone," leading to thoughts of letting go of love and the pain of deletion. However, despite these overwhelming feelings, the singer asserts that they are "right here" and not leaving. There is a poignant line stating that they cannot make the other person stay, but they will save their worries for the day when they are no longer needed.


The song ends with a return to the opening imagery of the changing seasons, with the line "watching their hearts in soil, go mold." This powerful line can be interpreted in many ways, but most likely it refers to the idea that everything has its time and place, and that even the most beautiful things can become faded and old over time.
