Clutch feat. Beha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To hide from the dawn
The Rock-Olas fire
Burns on and on
Have no fear the dark of night
She walks before us, Our Lady of Electric Light
And lifts her veil
With a voice like running water
She tells them her tale
The patrons all break down at the sight
Standing in the presence of Our Lady of Electric Light
Tiny plastic sabers
Piled high to my knees
Though the war rages on
I still find no enemies
They draw back the curtain
Are blinded by the dawn
And the shining Rock-Ola
Spins on and on
Now I know I can no longer fight
And I run into the arms of Our Lady of Electric Light
Now I know I can no longer fight
And I run into the arms of Our Lady of Electric Light
The song "The Light" by Clutch feat. Beha is a poetic tribute to electricity and its transformative power for individuals and society as a whole. The opening lines "They close the curtain to hide from the dawn / The Rock-Olas fire burns on and on" create an image of people who are afraid of the new day and what it might bring into their lives. The "Rock-Ola" is a reference to the Rock-Ola jukebox, a popular model in the 1950s and 60s that played 45 rpm records. The jukebox symbolizes the power of music to lift people's spirits and connect them with their emotions.
The second verse introduces the character of "Our Lady of Electric Light," who is described as walking before us and ushering in the dark of night. The patrons in the bar room are captivated by her voice, which is compared to running water. She tells them her tale, and they are moved to tears by her presence. This verse suggests that music, particularly amplified music, has the power to transport people to another world where they can forget their troubles and connect with something greater than themselves.
The final verse brings the narrative full circle by returning to the image of the Rock-Ola jukebox spinning on and on. The tiny plastic sabers piled high to the singer stand are a whimsical detail that underscores the playful tone of the song. The "war" that rages on could refer to any number of conflicts, both domestic and foreign, but the fact that the singer "still find[s] no enemies" suggests that he has found a way to rise above his surroundings.
In the end, the singer recognizes that he can no longer fight and runs into the arms of "Our Lady of Electric Light." This line suggests that he has found solace and comfort in the power of music and electricity. The song ends on an ambiguous note, leaving open the possibility that the singer's journey is far from over.
