The Night
Embracing Shadows: The Enigmatic Tale of Lila in 'The Night'
Lyrics
You're the night, Lila
You symbolize the night, Lila
A little girl lost in a storm
Depicting a young girl lost in a challenging situation
You're a folk tale,
You are like a folklore
The unexplainable
Representing something mysterious and beyond explanation
You're a bedtime story
Comparing you to a bedtime story
The one who keeps the curtains closed
Describing you as someone who keeps secrets and emotions hidden
I hope you're waiting for me
Expressing a hope that you are patiently waiting
'Cause I can't make it on my own
Expressing a reliance on you, unable to navigate life alone
I can't make it on my own
Reiterating the inability to handle life independently
It's too dark to see the landmarks
Referring to a situation where landmarks are obscured by darkness
And I don't want your goodluck charms
Rejecting the need for good luck charms
I hope you're waiting for me
Reiterating the hope for your presence
Across your carpet of stars
Imagining a journey across a celestial expanse
You're the night Lila
Reaffirming your identity as the night, Lila
You're everything we can't see
Emphasizing that you represent the unseen
Lila
Addressing you directly as Lila
You're the possibility
Portraying you as a symbol of potential and opportunity
You're a bedtime story
Repeating the comparison to a bedtime story
The one who keeps the curtains closed
Reiterating your role in concealing emotions
I hope you're waiting for me
Expressing a continued hope for your presence
'Cause I can't make it on my own
Reiterating the dependence on you, unable to navigate life alone
I can't make it on my own
Repeating the acknowledgment of the inability to handle life independently
Unknown in an unlit world of old
Describing you as unknown in a world devoid of light
You're the song I never heard before
You are likened to a song never heard before
Off the map where the wild things grow
Referring to a mysterious, unexplored place
Another world outside my door
Alluding to another world outside of the speaker's immediate surroundings
And here I stand all alone
Expressing solitude and vulnerability
And driving down a pitch black road
Describing a journey along a dark, featureless path
I can't make it
Reiterating the inability to manage alone
On my own
Emphasizing the struggle to navigate life independently
You're a bedtime story
Repeating the comparison to a bedtime story
The one who keeps the curtains closed
Reiterating the role of concealing emotions
I hope you're waiting for me
Expressing ongoing hope for your presence
Cause I can't make it on my own
Reiterating dependence, unable to navigate life alone
I can't make it on my own
Repeating the acknowledgment of the inability to handle life independently
