Nightshift
Hugo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out across the silver sea. baby there's always you and me
And we've got no choice but just to ride it out
It's where you are, not where you've been

Anything that gets me home, a late night remedy
Restless wound up energy,
ํYou only see straight in this town twisted
Anything that gets me home, a late night remedy
Restless wound up energy,
ํYou only see straight in this town twisted

Cool off, slow down, right now
Get on the nightshift. Get on the nightshift

No way out, just touch the sky, we're making starlight as we fly
Let chase down the fading light
The last embers of tonight

Anything that gets me home, a late night remedy
Restless wound up energy,
ํYou only see straight in this town twisted
Anything that gets me home, a late night remedy
Restless wound up energy,
ํYou only see straight in this town twisted

Cool off, slow down, right now
Get on the nightshift. Get on the nightshift

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Hugo's song Nightshift provide a distinct message of escapism and yearning for a place to call home. The opening lines "Out across the silver sea, baby there's always you and me" suggest a sense of journey, a search for a place of belonging. It's a journey that's not entirely in their control ("we've got no choice but just to ride it out"), evoking a feeling of uncertainty and unrest.


The chorus "Anything that gets me home, a late night remedy" speaks to the idea of finding solace and comfort in the late hours of the night. The restlessness that the singer feels is contrasted with the idea of home, which represents a sense of stability and peace. The lines "you only see straight in this town twisted" explore the paradoxical nature of living in a place that’s both familiar and yet confusing.


The final lines of "Get on the nightshift" provide a sense of urgency and a call to action, indicating a desire to escape the feeling of being lost and to find that sense of home.
