Twilight
Tom Dick & Harry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Cause I can never dial it down enough
Been acting insane when I'm in love
We're going up
So don't look down so far
Just go and show our dead enemies
Such a distraction to me
Always
Ima do it twice now
Every day I just wanna kick it with the lights down
A, BC now I'm looking at my phone like
Aye, thought you'd never listen to me
Put me in the twilight, face up
Ima do it twice now
Every day I just wanna kick it with the lights down
Aye, this shit got me looking at my phone like
Wait, I thought you'd never listen to me, listen to me
Cause this is who we are presently
Got it all on repeat
I know you got your reservations
And I just wanna run from love
This music got me so fucked up
Looking through my words like glass
I can't hear my thoughts in the (we're always in the)
Twilight wake up
Ima do it twice now
Every day I just wanna kick it with the lights down
A, BC now I'm looking at my phone like
Aye, thought you'd never listen to me
Put me in the twilight, face up
But your love is getting closer now
(Every day I just wanna kick it with the lights down)
This shit got me looking at my phone like
Wait, I thought you'd never listen to me
Thought I was in love when I stood under the lights
Now it's a sunken cost
Should I switch it up
Can't give me the same shit you pulled me out the flames with
Think I'm getting jaded like
So baby are we moving on
Cause there is nowhere left to go
You can't escape me
Attention got me wasted
Everyone acting patient to make me slow down
The lyrics of Tom Dick & Harry's song "Twilight" reflect a sense of emotional intensity and vulnerability. The opening lines express a feeling of overwhelming emotions, hinting at a past of behaving erratically when in love. The mention of going up and not looking down suggests a desire to rise above past conflicts and move forward with strength. The reference to facing dead enemies can be interpreted as confronting past traumas or obstacles, emphasizing the need to focus on the present and not dwell on the past.
The repetition of phrases like "twilight wake up" and "kick it with the lights down" creates a sense of routine and a longing for a sense of comfort and escape from reality. The lyrics also touch upon the theme of communication and the frustration of feeling unheard or dismissed by others. The line "this is who we are presently, got it all on repeat" emphasizes a feeling of being stuck in a cycle, perhaps wanting to break free from patterns that no longer serve them.
The mention of reservations and the desire to run from love suggest a fear of vulnerability and getting hurt again. The reference to feeling "fucked up" by the music indicates a deep emotional impact that music can have on one's psyche. The metaphor of looking through words like glass and feeling lost in the twilight further conveys a sense of confusion and introspection about one's emotions and experiences.
The final section of the lyrics delves into a sense of questioning and uncertainty about the future of a relationship. The mention of being stood under the lights and it being a sunken cost hints at a realization of past mistakes and questioning the value of continuing on the same path. The lyrics end on a note of introspection and contemplation, with the singer questioning whether it's time to move on or if there's still hope for a positive resolution. The reference to feeling wasted by attention and the desire for others to slow down in understanding them reflects a plea for patience and deeper connection in their relationships.
