Maybe you're right, but I always thought of the sun to be God. Like OnDistantShores said, he is frustrated at himself for another mistake. When he says "I fell away" meaning he has lost his close relationship with God and "fell away" to other things apart from him. But what you said was interesting and gave me a whole new perspective on the way I look at this song.
