Ever felt like you’re hiding behind a mask, even in broad daylight? 🌞 Silversun Pickups dive into that feeling with a haunting yet electrifying vibe. "Nightlight" explores the idea of masking our true selves and only revealing our desires when we feel safe—in the dark. The lyrics suggest a struggle between wanting to face our fears and choosing to stay hidden. By turning on nightlights during the day, they symbolize using superficial means to confront deeper issues. It’s about daring to be vulnerable while questioning if we're ready for it. So, whether it's love or life's challenges, we often crave them "with the lights out," where we feel less exposed but still yearn for something real. 💡
Nightlight
Lyrics
When the wind, behind our eyes swell
Starring down all, who generalize well
A chemical change of the spirit
Will be the exchange for our visit
Putting more makeup on the masks that we wear
Turning our nightlights on in the daytime to scare
If we say that (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If it's a game, well (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we enter, through the front door
With the keys we stole the night before
Now we have right to be the masters
Of the tangles of disaster
Ladies and gentlemen it's time to unveil
If this is the moment now to ask do we dare?
If we say that (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If it's a game, well (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we survive this (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
So delegate it! (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
Turning our nightlights on in the daytime to scare
If this is the moment now to ask do we dare?
If we say that (we want it)
If we say that (we want it)
If we say that (we want it)
If we say that (we want it, we want it)
If we say that (we want it)
If it's a game, well? (we want it)
If we survive this (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we say that (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If it's a game, well (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we survive this (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
So delegate it (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
