Sun Gone Down
Protoculture Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Days are turning colder
Autumn's coming closer
I can read between the lines

Nightfall taking over
The whole world on my shoulders
We're running out of time
Everything I thought I knew has led me down this road to you
And all I want is to believe

Somehow we lost our way drifting further day by day
Still my heart won't let me leave (Hey)

Can't see, can't breathe
Till we're back on solid ground
'Cuz every goodbye is a sun gone down

Tell me what you need
To turn the tide around
'Cuz every goodbye is a sun gone down

'Cuz every goodbye is a sun gone down

'Cuz every goodbye is a sun gone down
Can't see, can't breathe
Till we're back on solid ground
'Cuz every goodbye is a sun gone down

Tell me what you need




To turn the tide around
'Cuz every goodbye is a sun gone down

These sentiments are symbolic of the end of a season, the end of something familiar, and the beginning of something new. The singer in the song feels as though they're carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders, and the night feels like it's taking over, symbolizing the darkness and uncertainty that have consumed their world.


The singer acknowledges that they've lost their way and is searching for a way to turn everything around, asking their partner what they need to help them move forward. Despite the confusion and uncertainty, the singer's heart won't let them leave, indicating that they're committed to finding a way to make everything work. The chorus emphasizes the relentless feeling of lost hope and uncertainty that characterizes the song, with the phrase "every goodbye is a sun gone down" highlighting the finality and inevitability of endings.

This toon is beautiful. Crystal clear vocals and relateable lyrics. I can't wait till this toon comes out... my ideal sound of Trance.

2:16 What a brilliant Sound Design. The Pads, Bass, Reverb, Vocals, Melody. All the tools put it together into a work of art. Twelve years have gone by and I still can't think of another atmosphere like this.
Nate, I hope you come up with some more of it.
