Daylight
Embracing Contradictions: Love and Hate, Hidden Sins
Lyrics
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Expressing a conflicted emotional response, simultaneously loving and hating a situation.
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Shared experience of facing challenges, possibly referring to a toxic relationship.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiteration of the mixed emotions towards the situation.
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
Concealing wrongdoing and misdeeds away from the scrutiny of the daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Repeated desire to escape or avoid confronting the truth, represented by daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
-Telling myself I won't go there
Internal conflict and hesitation about entering a problematic situation.
Oh, but I know that I won't care
Awareness of the consequences but a willingness to ignore them.
Tryna wash away all the blood I've spilt
Attempting to cleanse oneself from guilt and remorse.
This lust is a burden that we both share
Acknowledging a shared burden of desire or lust with someone else.
Two sinners can't atone from a lone prayer
Recognition that two individuals with flaws cannot seek redemption through solitary prayers.
Souls tied, intertwined by our pride and guilt
Connection of souls through pride and guilt, indicating a complex relationship.
There's darkness in the distance
Anticipation or recognition of impending negativity or challenges.
From the way that I've been livin'
Reflection on a questionable lifestyle or choices made.
But I know I can't resist it
Admitting attraction to darkness despite the awareness of its consequences.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiteration of the love-hate sentiment towards the conflicting situation.
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
-Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
-Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
Continued effort to conceal sins from the scrutiny of the daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Persistently running away from facing the truth represented by daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
-Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Repeating the conflicting emotions towards the situation.
Tellin' myself it's the last time
A self-admonition that the current situation should be the last occurrence.
Can you spare any mercy that you might find
Pleading for mercy or forgiveness from a higher power.
If I'm down on my knees again?
A humble plea for help while being in a vulnerable state.
Deep down, way down, Lord, I try
Internal struggle to follow a virtuous path but facing challenges, especially during nighttime.
Try to follow your light, but it's night time
-Please, don't leave me in the end
An urgent request not to be abandoned in the end, possibly by the divine.
There's darkness in the distance
Reiteration of the darkness, seeking forgiveness, and acknowledging resistance.
I'm beggin' for forgiveness (ooh)
-But I know I might resist it, oh
Despite the plea for forgiveness, there's an acknowledgment of potential resistance to change.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Continued expression of the conflicting emotions in the face of the challenging situation.
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
-Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
-Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
Persistent hiding of sins from the scrutiny of daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Reiteration of the desire to escape or avoid facing the truth represented by daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
-Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Repeating the simultaneous love and hate towards the situation.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Further emphasizing the conflicting emotions in the current situation.
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Shared experience of consuming something harmful, possibly a metaphor for toxic actions.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiterating the mixed emotional response towards the situation.
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
Continued effort to hide sins away from the scrutiny of daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Persistently running away from confronting the truth represented by daylight.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
-Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Final repetition of the conflicting emotions towards the situation.
