The Sun
Tree Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've had a rough couple days
But I know we'll be okay
Sun shining oh so brightly
My love is here beside me
I feel the rays
Shine on my face
No skies of grey
Let's fly away
Stay in the light
Every morning we rise again
And I will fight
The sun is shining overhead
Stay in the light
Every morning we rise again
And I will fight
The sun is shining overhead
I breathe in deep and release
All of the pain that haunts me
I'm here and I am worthy
I'm here you can't destroy me
I feel the rays
Shine on my face
No skies of grey
Let's fly away
I feel the rays
Shine on my face
No skies of grey
Let's fly away
Sun, sun, sun, sun shining
Sun shining on me
Sun, sun, sun, sun shining
Sun shining on me
Sun, sun, sun, sun shining
Sun shining on me
Sun, sun, sun, sun shining
Sun shining on me
Sun, sun, sun, sun shining
Sun shining on me




Sun, sun, sun, sun shining
Sun shining on me

I was wondering what Liam was talking about in the beginning of the episode - the difficult, personal problems he was experiencing in his life and how the fans helped him through that. I finally found a thread about it on Twitter; he'd just lost his mother to cancer. I feel terribly for him in this episode. He's such a sweet man, and you can tell it's had its affect. I'm so happy the community was there for him.

Here's his thread, for those who are interested (posted in 2018):

"My mother battled with cancer on and off throughout her life. In the lead up to her passing two years ago, it robbed her of her personality, and finally, stole her from our lives. It was the hardest, darkest moment of my life.

It was exactly at that moment a snap decision in this little game of ours lead the story into a direction heavily layered with death & dying. One that lasted to the end of the campaign. The intersection of life & the game was uncanny to me, & the two bled into each other.

In the weeks following her passing, I felt pretty swallowed up by loss, but spending time with my trusted friends every week, exploring the very thing that I was haunted by…. taught me volumes. Sometimes art is just entertainment. But it’s often much more."

​@@Edge_WalkerTo be concise:

- Likely drug abuse

- Spiraling mental waves

- Main Character Syndrome

- Cheating & lying got to a point of "we're done"

- Last episode he got creepy for no reason

- Attacking a fan

The hate on him is valid, but more are just thankful he's gone and hope he gets better because he, at one point, was a fun guy!

If you've watched the first 27 episodes, congratulations, you've made it.

@leandromendoza5835

Glory, happiness, victory... At last.


Now it gets good baby, LETS GOOO!


P.D: If you see this, don't read chat, now chat are simps that think the cast are their friends and not entertainers that want their money.... back then they were rude mf who insulted everyone and called roleplaying metagame and being bored a reason to leave the game forever. Weirdest shit.

I got to like 12 before I just had to skip to 27... dude just got untrinketable.

@@samhachmeister9876 Nooo! You skipped out on a lot of good shit dude, mostly things Orion is not in tbh. I'm in ep 45, and it was worth it

@namewarvergeben

@@samhachmeister9876 He is not in episodes 18 and 19, and both are really fun episodes with some great RP!

Other than that, he improves a little in or around 22-25. They clearly had a talk with him around that time, gave him a chance.
But honestly, every episode has some great moments, even 26 and 27. Half the crew disguising themselves as cows, or Taliesin "translating" for a water elemental for example :D

Never quite noticed how often Matt gets interrupted until it wasn't happening anymore.

@airawolf4261

Right? The story is so much smoother

@sumnergurl19

I liked Tiberious when he was silly and adorable and quite helpful with his spells. but it was rare and far-between. so I agree, the story is so much smoother now and I'm loving it.

@Quiverpen

Love the character, hate the execution.
