J.O.S.H. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running thru the twi– (I'll be)
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Snow up on the headlights
Gotta get my head right
Stars appearing in my sight
Running through the twilight
Snow up on the headlights
Gotta get my head right
Stars appearing in my–
I'll be there no matter where I go
Walking through the icy snow
Dreaming high but living low
Set me free so I don't know
On the line, what will I say?
Soaring through that night and day
Locking all my fears away
In this light, I lay
I'll be there no matter where I go
Walking through the icy snow
Dreaming high but living low
Set me free so I don't know
On the line, what will I say?
Soaring through that night and day
Locking all my fears away
In this light, I lay
What a life I lack, never cut me slack
Old to these mothafuckas like an artifact
I roll with that and I bring it back
Keepin' up with me, I've been on the attack
I was falling down, like an endless pit
Feeling so off, lemme take a hit
Broke outta that jail, I had to quit
If you feelin' fucked up, let this sit
I'm running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running thru the twi– (I'll be)
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Running through the twilight
Snow up on the headlights
Gotta get my head right
Stars appearing in my sight
Running through the twilight
Snow up on the headlights
Gotta get my head right
Stars appearing in my–
I'll be there no matter where I go
Walking through the icy snow
Dreaming high but living low
Set me free so I don't know
On the line, what will I say?
Soaring through that night and day
Locking all my fears away
In this light, I lay
I'll be there no matter where I go
Walking through the icy snow
Dreaming high but living low
Set me free so I don't know
On the line, what will I say?
Soaring through that night and day
Locking all my fears away
In this light, I lay, I pray
The lyrics to J.O.S.H.'s song "Twilight" are about a late-night phone call between two lovers. The singer is receiving a call from his lover, who is feeling paranoid and afraid, as if she is in a state of twilight. He likens her emotions to a snake bite running through her veins. Despite her fears, he reassures her that they can be reckless and crazy together. The chorus repeats, emphasizing their mutual madness and the effect it has on their bodies.
The second verse shifts to the perspective of the lover on the other line of the phone call. She is also calling in a late-night panic, but the singer sees her illuminated by the moonlight. He recognizes that she has fears and promises to be there for her, never letting her shed a tear. He sings that he fell from the stars just to be with her, finally realizing that they can shine brightly together. The chorus repeats twice more, rounding out the song's catchy melody and romantic themes.
Overall, "Twilight" is a song about the intense, all-consuming feelings of love and the way those emotions can manifest in our bodies. The lyrics emphasize the idea of being reckless, crazy, and madly in love with someone, and the way that passion can feel like a snake bite coursing through our veins. The song's catchy melody and hypnotic hook make it an irresistible listen, capturing the exhilaration and intensity of young love in a way that's both relatable and exciting.

Calling my phone it’s a late night
Receiving a late night call
Paranoid she has me in a twilight
Feeling anxious and uncertain about the situation
Baby girl it feels like a snake bite
The situation is intense and painful
Running through your veins
The feeling is consuming and overpowering
Baby we can be insane.
The intensity of the relationship can make them act irrationally
Baby girl I see you in the moonlight
Seeing his significant other in a romantic light
Baby girl I know you have some fears
Recognizing that his significant other has insecurities
Let me be the one to never let you shed a tear
Promising to always be there for her and keep her from being upset
Falling from the stars just to see you
Doing anything to be with her
Baby I knew it was always me and you
Believing that they were destined to be together
Now I see that we can shine bright
Realizing that they can be successful as a couple
Baby let me show you how to live this life
Wanting to guide her and make her life better
While we pouring up this drank
Drinking together
Imma let you know girl
Assuring her of his feelings
Sipping all day
Drinking throughout the day
While I’m blazing on this Jane
Smoking marijuana
She tells that im playing games
His significant other thinks he's not taking the relationship seriously
Baby we can be insane.
The relationship can still be intense and irrational even with their differences
Calling my phone it’s a late night
Repeating that he is receiving a late night call
Paranoid she has me in a twilight
Still feeling anxious and uncertain
Baby girl it feels like a snake bite
The situation is still intense and painful
Running through your veins
It's still consuming and overpowering
Baby we can be insane.
Regardless of their troubles, they can still experience an intense and passionate relationship

Her twilight film is my favorite one. The queen of independent aesthetic😊
@gi1326
me too, i feel like she really captured the real feeling of the book, wish she kept on directing the whole saga
@merryway3
Same, the first one feels really intimate and cozy. I love the indie aesthetic.
@andrimufid2195
Love it or hate it, what she has put together is a miracle. We're so lucky to live in that era
@kb5509
Is it? Are we?
@royalroy93
Really? 🙄🤷

In Hollywood, it's all about following the money. When a film of a certain genre/IP is successful at the box office, studios wanna make more of these type of movies. The fact that this movie was done by director who made it (in many aspects) her own way, and the studio was able to let her get away with it, and earning $700 million at the box office, and on top of that still has that timeless quality to it speaks a lot to the fact luck has been on the side of this universe.
@gulseniseviyorumbaby
she literally gave birth to a whole genre and i’m so happy that she’s finally getting the recognition she deserves!!!
@washposthero
Such a shame she didn't get to make the rest of the series. This was the best one.
@hannahg8439
She could have made the rest of the series but chose not to.
