My inclination is that in this song the sun is meant to represent heaven. I could be looking too deep into this but it seems to me that Wayne is referring to the assassination of what is good in this world by the evils in our daily life. He may be referring to the evangelical movement when he says "they have begun to celebrate the tidal wave they think is great/the ever beating heart that it wasnt" and how from the inside the evangelists see it as a fantastice movement but on the outside theyre running a horrible machine that churns out pain instead of orange, but operates under the facade of something heavenly ("and everything was orange).
