Right In The Night
K.U. Lyrics

K.U.'s song "Right in the Night" talks about the different experiences of people during the night. The first verse refers to people who have difficulties sleeping, especially when they are alone. The opening line, "Are you one of mine who can sleep with one eye open wide?" is an indication of paranoia, of being very alert and cautious even when sleeping. The second line shows how this can be a difficult and psychotic experience, especially since it takes hours to decide on whether to fall asleep or not. The third line refers to the need for a source of light in order to feel safe, as any noise can trigger anxiety, as indicated in the fourth line where the sound of a knock on the door becomes a source of utmost panic.

The next verse takes a contrasting tone, talking about the rich and powerful who can afford to do whatever they want during the night. The first line, "Rich and powerful ascend complicated bends to be free," refers to the idea that the affluent and influential can access things that are not easily available to common people. The next line, "To indulge in what they will and jaded thrill or fantasy," suggests that these people can do whatever their twisted minds fancy, be it an indulgence of physical desires or a play of twisted minds. The third line, "Shuttered windows that belie all stifled cries from within," shows the secrecy and isolation of their actions, and the fourth line, "And prying eyes are blind to proceedings of the kind that begin," hints at the taboo or illegal nature of their activities.

Overall, the song expresses different perspectives on the nights, painting a picture of the stark contrasts between those who are haunted by their fears and those who use their freedom to indulge in their darkest desires.
