Children of the Sun
by
Lindemann
In this evocative track, Lindemann explores the transient nature of existence through the metaphor of day and night. The lyrics depict beings who "live only one day," suggesting a fleeting, ephemeral life akin to that of mayflies, which are born at dawn and die at dusk. This imagery powerfully encapsulates themes of impermanence and the inevitable approach of mortality, emphasized by the recurring motif of the sky turning red—a traditional harbinger of doom or significant change. The refrain "we are in heaven but we can't stay" further underscores the idea that moments of bliss are temporary, reinforcing a melancholic acceptance of life's limits. #EphemeralLife #Transience #Mortality #LindemannLyrics
