From the Sun Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Isolation can put a gun your in hand
It can put a gun in your hand
It can put a gun in your hand
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can throw away the only one
[Verse 2]
I'm so tired, but I can never lay down my head
I can never lay down my head
I can never lay down my head
I'm so lonely, but I can never quite reach the phone
I can never quite reach the phone
I can never quite reach the phone
I'm so lonely, but I can never quite reach the phone
I'm so lonely, I've gotta eat my popcorn all alone
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Isolation can put a gun your in hand
It can put a gun in your hand
It can put a gun in your hand
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can throw away the only one
Isolation can put a gun your in hand
It can put a gun in your hand
It can put a gun in your hand
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can throw away the only one
[Verse 2]
I'm so tired, but I can never lay down my head
I can never lay down my head
I can never lay down my head
I'm so lonely, but I can never quite reach the phone
I can never quite reach the phone
I can never quite reach the phone
I'm so lonely, but I can never quite reach the phone
I'm so lonely, I've gotta eat my popcorn all alone
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Isolation can put a gun your in hand
It can put a gun in your hand
It can put a gun in your hand
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
You can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can get away from the sun
If you need to, you can throw away the only one

What did Unknown Mortal Orchestra say about "From the Sun"?
Genius Answer
When asked about the opening lyrics during an interview with Fuse, Ruban said:
Yeah, it wasn’t an emo thing; it was more like a whirlwind. When I would sit down and think about the way I was feeling, I’d be meditative and down. I thought the album was going to be just a pop album and then when it was finished, I was just like, “Man, I used the word lonely four times on this album.”
