Sun goes down

Post by Cypress »

It’s from ATB’s song

Well that’s enough crying for today
Is that enough enemies to make you stay
Maybe I’m tired of thinking
Maybe my lines are growing old

Don’t let the sun
Don’t let the sun
Don’t let the sun go down on me


I cannot figure out the meaning of two things here:
1) my lines are growing old
2) don’t let the sun go down on me

Any ideas?

"Maybe my lines are growning old" = This one is hard to explain, but roughly, "Maybe my words are losing their effect (over time)."
"Don't let the sun go down on me" = Do not give up on me.

I hope that makes sense to you!
