Lyrics
Caught me off guard and took me by the hand
Caught off guard and led by hand, expressing a sudden, unexpected connection.
At a party we were at you asked why are your songs so sad?
Question about the melancholic nature of the songs, initiating a deeper conversation.
Then you told me about your Dad, you can't stand the man
Revelation about disliking one's father, indicating a personal struggle.
There was something in your eyes that made me feel glad
The emotional impact of the revelation brings a sense of happiness or relief.
And it all comes out after dark
Emphasizing that deep, personal truths are revealed during nighttime.
Fill up your cup, 'cause it gets real fast
Encouraging to indulge in alcohol to facilitate open and fast communication.
When truth comes after dark
Highlighting the speed at which truth unfolds during the night.
Truth comes after dark
Reiteration of the idea that truth is revealed in the darkness.
In another conversation in the back of the garden
Setting for another conversation where personal struggles, like a difficult breakup, are shared.
You cried about your ex, twenty four is fucking hard you said
Acknowledging the challenges of being twenty-four and the associated emotional difficulties.
Yeah I guess I said out loud, while inside my head I thought our bodies are just shrines to this love and the next
Reflection on the transient nature of relationships and the emotional toll.
And it all comes out after dark
Reiteration that deep, personal truths emerge during the darkness.
Fill up your cup, 'cause it gets real fast
Suggesting the use of alcohol to facilitate a faster revelation of truth.
When truth comes after dark
Reiterating the theme that truth comes out in the dark.
Truth comes after dark
Emphasizing again that truth is revealed after dark.
When I've drunk enough I'll say I'm scared of staying still
Expressing fear of stagnation and a desire to avoid wasting time.
I don't want to waste my life, I know I probably will
Acknowledging the awareness of the possibility of wasting life despite intentions.
I'm scared that I don't feel like I think I should
Conveying fear and uncertainty about personal emotions and feelings.
Guess I'll never really know, yeah I guess that's good
Acceptance of not fully understanding oneself, finding solace in the uncertainty.
And it all comes out after dark
Restating that deep truths surface during the darkness.
Fill up your cup, 'cause it gets real fast
Encouraging the consumption of alcohol for a quicker revelation of truth.
When truth comes after dark
Reaffirming that truth is exposed after dark.
When truth comes after dark
Reiteration of the idea that truth comes out during nighttime.
Truth comes after dark
Emphasizing that truth is consistently revealed in the dark.
Truth comes after dark
Repeating the theme that truth emerges after dark.
Truth comes after dark
Final repetition, underlining the consistent pattern of truth surfacing during the darkness.
