love the eeriness of the lyrics in this song. from my perspective, it seems as if he may be talking about his resolve to refrain from acts of rebellion weakens when the sun goes down. perhaps this is drugs?
'sundown syndrome' is an actual disease suffered by people with alzheimer's causing them to wander off in the night.
"i wander around for days, wondering what i'll say, when they want the truth"
like a mischievous elderly losing his mind, he becomes weak and wanders, oblivious of the consequences and the words from authoritarian stand over men, but his eyes always give him away when he's been up to something.
"the depth of every touch is real as you need, but words don't do any favours for me" his only language is actions, words mean nothing to him.
so i think "sundown syndrome" in this case is probably a metaphor for parallels between the young and those who are going through mental decline. they rebel in the night time and are oblivious of the consequences until the sun comes up and the words start flying.
