Sundown Syndrome Lyrics
You know that mine can't lie
Quite as well as yours
Just let the spare moment flow
Rounding steps as I go
Through the open doors
I'd hold still every time but I'd start to shake
I wander around for days
Wondering what I'll say
When they want the truth
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depths of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me

this song is so amazing.

This is fuckin' magic. Shame they didn't put it on Innerspeaker!!

immaculate..i love how they repeat the refrain..i can relate way too much.
Hey, I wanted to ask you in which way it related to you, what do you think is he talking about? I sometimes have exactly the same feeling, sometimes, music is just perfectly describing the situation I'm in in life. With this song, however, I was always asking myself what he might refer to. How was it for you? Thanks for sharing!

what are you getting out the lyrics to this song? I love this band but I dunno, their other songs seems a lot more straight forward.

love the eeriness of the lyrics in this song. from my perspective, it seems as if he may be talking about his resolve to refrain from acts of rebellion weakens when the sun goes down. perhaps this is drugs? 'sundown syndrome' is an actual disease suffered by people with alzheimer's causing them to wander off in the night. "i wander around for days, wondering what i'll say, when they want the truth" like a mischievous elderly losing his mind, he becomes weak and wanders, oblivious of the consequences and the words from authoritarian stand over men, but his eyes always give him away when he's been up to something. "the depth of every touch is real as you need, but words don't do any favours for me" his only language is actions, words mean nothing to him. so i think "sundown syndrome" in this case is probably a metaphor for parallels between the young and those who are going through mental decline. they rebel in the night time and are oblivious of the consequences until the sun comes up and the words start flying.
