God Damn the Sun Lyrics

Pretty straightforward. Best friends drifting apart over time, developing their own problems. One of them is suddenly killed and the other is left to become cynical and depressed. With the loss of both their true love and best friend their life becomes desolate and meaningless, and they grow to hate everything.

The line "God damn anyone that says a kind word" really resonates. For some people, the pain of losing someone is so strong they outright refuse to be comforted. The grief becomes an addiction and they become bitter toward anyone who tries to help.

An amazing song. So haunting, and perfect for wallowing in misery.
