| Earthsuit – Said The Sun To The Shine Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Ok, I'll do my best. The Philosopher Plato described the trinity like the sun, the light of the sun and the shadow falling due to its light. The three were different but all the same. The first line refers to the glare that comes of the sun, which would then, in plato's picture be a metaphor for incarnation, thus Jesus in christian theology. The lyric is from the viewpoint of God talking to man. I am the light of the world. (I'm like parhelion..) I give light, so can you (I'm like a luminary wizard...) I cause the universe to continue (I'm like a night incinerator...) I control the universe (I got planets radiating...) I bring all life to myself.. (Integrating life lines...) The next lines refer to the universality of the hope of the rise, thus the universality of the metaphor (everyone knows...) The chorus refers to the full platonic trinitarian picture. The Sun Shine and Shadow "forever bind" in godhead. The second verse pics up the "just like you are" in the verse verse and expands. Humans are made in God's image and we are offed the integrating life of God. Thus the moral of the story is this line: "Be my reflection to this world You're my unique design" |
