I also think that the song is referring to the old person that his ex used to be and its gone because he ruin the relationship somehow and time later when he went through a hard time he wanted come back because the relationship always made him feel right, but she's a different persona already, he miss the old one and feels guilty because it was his fault that she changed. I thinking that the title "sunburn" its referring to the relationship and the mark that she left on him with all the warmth that she give him, that didn't damaged him terribly after breakup but with the memories and lost hurting him everyday. You’re not her Though I try to see you differently (When he try to reach her again he notices that is not the one he fall in love with, but still holds that memory of her) I tow the line You see, I’m searching for what used to be mine (He's trying to get back the relationship when she loved him) I saw your eyes And then I saw allice staring back at me (Allice is his ex girlfriend and all those memories are still in his head) And I will try to find another one Who suited me as well as her (This show that what he's looking for the feeling that he had with her, the kind of relationship that they used to have, he's not actually in love with her entire person) I moved far away from you (He was the first in loosing interesting on the relationship) And I want to see you here beside me, dear But things aren’t clear (He want her back and the way it was before but she is not that person anymore and he's not feeling the same thats why he's confused) When we never even tried We never even talked We never even thought in the long run Whenever it was painful Whenever I was away (They didn't try to save the relationship when the things went wrong, they just let that happen but now that they are away he miss her and its painful to had let that relationship gone, the long run its referring the running of him that make her change) I’d miss you I miss you (He had miss her when they were away and now that he's trying to get her back stills missing her, the old her) She was mine I was hers And all that’s in between (They used to fix perfectly) If she would cry I would shelter her And keep her from the darkness that will be (Maybe the bad times of her were the reason why he start getting away and now he regrets that and say that even in the bad times he would be with there now) Don’t drop me in It’s not my turn (He's going trough a hard time and don't want to have to lose even the memory and the ideal of her being his safe place ) If you cut deep Then I might learn (He didn't take the importance on the relationship before and now that she's different and don't want to get back he will learn to giving value to the relationships and persons) You scarred and left me Like a sunburn (That she made a change on him because of all the warmth that she gave him and leaves him gradually even if it wasn't a deep scar that make him suffer too bad but slowly) Don’t drop me in It’s not my turn If you cut deep Then I might learn You scar and leave me Like a sunburn (When he change the word "left" to "leave" its trying to say that she's not going back to him and she's making him another scar with the memory that will disappear hurting him gradually again) We never even tried We never even talked We never even thought in the long run Whenever it was painful Whenever I was away I’d miss you And I miss you (He closed the song saying this again because she indeed was like a sunburn that disappear slowly not hurting you one time but every day a little bit with the memories and regrets of something that were someday wonderful.. He says again that in all the time that they had been away he was missing her and even talking with her again he's still missing the old time and the old her) All this was just my interpretation and sorry for the grammar mistakes and all that its just that english its my second language and i haven't practiced it for too long. |
