Be this sunset soon forgotten
Your brothers left here shaved and crazy
We've learned to hide our bottles in the well
And what's worth keeping, sun still sinking
Down and down
Once again
Down and down
Gone again

Be this sunset one for keeping
This June bug street sings low and lovely
Those band-aid children
Chased your dog away
She runs, returning, sun still sinking
Down and down
Once again
Down and down
Gone again

    It's probably about childhood memories involving sunsets. We don't remember every sunset live through, but there are the occasional that are symbolic to us for some reason or just because it's that damn beautiful. Great song, Sam Beam rocks...
