Daylight
Joji - Nectar Lyrics

Wide awake, getting half-past zero
Fully alert, it feels like it's very late and time is running out

It's getting heated so I leave the windows open (leave the windows open)
The temperature is rising, so I open the windows to let the cool air in

Preoccupied with a late night B-roll
Distracted by thoughts of the night before, replaying them in my mind

Right now, laying here alone is heaven (here alone is heaven)
Being alone in this moment feels like pure bliss

And I've been a hero
I have been strong and courageous in the past

Helpless
But now I feel powerless and vulnerable

I'm in hell
My current situation feels like a never-ending nightmare

And I've cried up and down in these hallways
I have wept and mourned in this space many times before

Blamed myself
I am holding myself responsible for the current situation and everything that has led up to it

Bad luck, I don't wanna be home at midnight
I am afraid of being alone in the darkness

Sun's up, I don't really wanna fight the daylight
I am struggling to deal with the harsh reality of daylight and the responsibilities it brings

I don't care if you moved on
I am not bothered by the fact that you have moved on with your life

I'm not laying in bed with a fucked up head
I am not going to let my thoughts and emotions consume me while I am in bed

Sun-dried on the backyard patio
Dried out and exposed to the elements on the patio in the backyard

Drunk eyes 'cause I didn't give it a home run
My eyes are blurry from drinking, and I feel like I failed to achieve something great

You're hiding on the FM radio
Your presence is still felt in the music that plays on the radio

I sing along just to sing my thoughts at someone
I sing along as a way to express my thoughts and feelings to the world

And I've been a hero
I have been brave and strong in the past

Helpless
But now I feel like there is nothing I can do to change my situation

I'm in hell (I'm in hell)
My current situation feels like a never-ending nightmare (repeated for emphasis)

And I've cried
I have shed tears of sadness and despair

Up and down in these hallways
Moving back and forth in this space, unable to escape my thoughts

Blamed myself
I hold myself responsible for everything that has led up to this point

Bad luck, I don't wanna be home at midnight
I am fearful of being alone in the darkness

Sun's up, I don't really wanna fight the daylight
I am struggling to deal with the harsh reality of daylight and the responsibilities it brings

I don't care if you moved on
I am unaffected by the fact that you have moved on with your life

I'm not laying in bed with a fucked up head
I refuse to let my thoughts and emotions consume me while I am in bed
