Sun Down
Tirzah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She makes me run wild
Where's the fun now?
Where's the fun now?
And I full run down
She breaks the love town
I feel the real now
Keep you in the back of my mind
You're always in my sight
Keep you in the back
Keep you in the back of my mind
You're always in my sun
Where you found out
is when you talk loud
Don't want to put you down
if you remind now
Can see you fade out
Why want you stay now
shadow cost down
You didn't heave on the ground
Keep you in the back of my mind
You're always in my sight
Keep you in the back
Keep you in the back of my mind
You're always in my sun
You saw my sun down
She makes me run wild
Where's the fun now?
Where's the fun now?
And I full run down
She breaks the love town
I feel the real now
She says I'm too proud
Keep you in the back of my mind
You're always in my sight
Keep you in the back
Keep you in the back of my mind
You're always in my sun
Tirzah's song Sun Down seems to be about a woman who makes her feel wild and free, but also brings out a sense of pride within her. The lyrics "You saw my sun down, she makes me run wild, where's the fun now?" suggest that something has happened to Tirzah that has dulled her light and tamed her wild spirit. She questions where the fun has gone and seems to be struggling to find it again. The line "And I full run down, she breaks the love town, I feel the real now, she says I'm too proud" possibly refers to the fact that this woman's presence in Tirzah's life has exposed the reality of her situation and that she may be too proud to accept help or change.
The repeated chorus "Keep you in the back of my mind, you're always in my sight" implies that this woman is always on Tirzah's mind, always in her thoughts and that she sees her everywhere. The lines "Where you found out is when you talk loud, don't want to put you down if you remind now, can see you fade out, why want you stay now, shadow cost down, you didn't heave on the ground" suggest that perhaps this woman is going through a tough time and struggling to cope. Tirzah wants to support her but is unable to do so because of her own struggles.
Overall, the song Sun Down seems to be about the struggle to find joy and light when life is difficult. Tirzah is trying to navigate her own challenges while also trying to support someone close to her who is struggling as well. The song is emotional and raw, with Tirzah's distinct voice and simple production allowing the lyrics to shine through.

Tricky + Norman Reedus = Perfect video. This song is still one of the best, Tricky is so underrated.

Tricky is the best! Been a fan of his since I first heard hells around the corner I was like 14yrs old.. Not to mention his stuff with Massive Attack. Now Norman Reedus is just an added bonus.
