Lyrics

It's too bright for too late at night

Refers to the brightness despite being late at night, implying discomfort or difficulty sleeping.

My eyes are tired, all I would like

Expresses fatigue and the desire to rest.

Is to close them with you

Wants to close eyes together with someone, possibly seeking intimacy or closeness.

And see the things that you do

Desires shared experiences or perspectives with the person.


I miss you, I miss everyone

Expresses longing for someone or missing a group of people.

If I haven't met you yet, then I miss you most of all,

Emphasizes missing someone deeply, even if they haven’t been met yet, indicating a strong emotional connection.

I want your heat & your sweat & your hand in my back at the festival

Desires physical closeness, wanting the warmth and presence of someone at an event or festival.


Picture a room full of people all feeling the same way,

Imagines a scenario where many people share similar emotions or experiences.

It's hard to explain

Expresses difficulty in articulating or understanding complex emotions like crying or laughing.

Crying or laughing, you try and understand it, you can't

Highlights the challenge of comprehending intense emotions.


Are we meant just to try, try, try to overlap?

Questions whether striving to connect or coincide with others is our purpose.


I miss you, all of you, I miss my life before

Expresses missing a previous phase of life or people.

We are the lucky few, I know it's true, but God my eyes are sore

Acknowledges being fortunate but experiencing discomfort despite that luck.

I want to close them with you and see the same things that you do

Desires shared experiences or perspectives with someone close.


Rain on the bay, terror in the streets

Contrasts challenging situations like rain and terror with the beauty of nature.

Yeah but nothing in the way of the sunlight through the trees

Highlights the beauty of sunlight despite difficult circumstances.

And your hand on my hand across enemy lands and sea

Symbolizes unity and connection despite obstacles or differences.
