The Sun Doesn't Like You Lyrics
The sun doesn't like you, you always get burned,
Stay in the shade and watch the world turn.
Better find a new place to lay on the ground,
Can't stay where you are or you're gonna be found.
And time won't pass you by,
And I won't tell you lies.
So tonight...we can build a fire,
In the open field past the razor wire.
Sneak by the dogs when they go to sleep,
Bring part of yourself that you'll let me keep.
'cause time won't pass us by,
And I won't tell you lies,
Someday I will ask you why ...but not now.
And time won't pass us by,
And you won't tell me lies,
Someday we all have to die...but not now.
Stay in the shade and watch the world turn.
Better find a new place to lay on the ground,
Can't stay where you are or you're gonna be found.
And I won't tell you lies.
In the open field past the razor wire.
Sneak by the dogs when they go to sleep,
Bring part of yourself that you'll let me keep.
And I won't tell you lies,
Someday I will ask you why ...but not now.
And you won't tell me lies,
Someday we all have to die...but not now.

Man, I am astonished! These words so fit to my situation... I think that here is about a person, a guy, who doesnt like much people, better say: afraid of people. A one who like lonelyness. Everytime he walks outside, the failure with people gets him. Maybe, the same thing is with girls. Of course, time wont pass him by, and he will lose a lot if he doesnt get strength and courage to deal with it. The voice, (she), is calling him to come to her at night, so they could make a big progress in man-woman relationship and share intime moments. "Bring part of yourself that you'll let me keep" - I think that this "part" means "worm feeling" (heart). I am not quite sure what "lies" means... "Someday we all have to die...", so why lose any more time on misunderstandings within genders when it is very simple! ... yeah, the "lies" may be "misunderstandings, passivity, fears of people"
...this is just my point of view...

this song to me is about a man/boy who isnt very social, and doesnt really know how to react with people. So 'she' is going to help him out at night wanting him to "sneak by the dogs when they go to sleep." to go and see her, so she can help him. and instead of just helping him, she is falling for him, even with all this flaws and weakness. just my idea of the song.
I thought this was about breaking out of prison, lol.
