Higher Than The Sun
Peace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It seems as though you never go to bed
You take the dollar, I'll take the dime
Everything'll turn out right
You know you're fun, I'll take the jump
All I wanna know's how high
Higher than the sun
When in doubt just think about the ending
Wipe your eyes and strip down to the bone
You take the dollar, I'll take the dime
Everything'll turn out right
Tapping your teeth, shivering feet
The boulevard got so bright
Higher than the sun
Higher than the sun
You wanna play it cool, you wanna be the man
You wanna hold my heart in your hand
But you know that the truth, is just the fruit of the fool
The lyrics to Peace's song "Higher Than The Sun" express a desire to escape reality and achieve a state of transcendence. The singer longs to "sleep forever" and seeks solace in the "Aurora creep," a metaphor for the mystical Northern Lights. The line "It seems as though you never go to bed" suggests that the singer is envious of the Aurora's perpetual luminosity and wishes to emulate it.
The chorus, "Higher than the sun," is a repeated mantra that represents both the singer's desire to reach a higher state of consciousness and their acknowledgement of the impossibility of achieving it. The verses center around the exchange of a dollar and a dime, symbolizing a transaction that will make everything "turn out right." These ambiguous lyrics could be interpreted as a critique of capitalism or a plea for simplicity.
The second verse introduces the idea of mortality with the line "When in doubt just think about the ending." The singer encourages the listener to confront their mortality and let go of limitations. The final line, "the truth, is just the fruit of the fool," suggests that the pursuit of truth is a fool's errand, and that true understanding can only be achieved by letting go of rationality and embracing the unknown.
Overall, "Higher Than The Sun" is a dreamy and introspective song about transcendence, mortality, and the pursuit of meaning.
