The lyrics of Unknown Hinson's song "Closer to the Light" are deeply introspective and emotional. They discuss difficult moments in life, struggling to find meaning and direction, and the power of human connection. The opening lines "Hate wa natsukashii kisetsu, ashita o motometa" ("Summer is a nostalgic season, I seek tomorrow") suggest a longing for something that has been lost or has yet to be found. The singer reflects on a summer day where they feel as though they are crumbling every time they touch someone due to their own inability to do anything.
The second verse takes a more philosophical turn. The singer acknowledges that the answer they had been seeking wasn't simply a matter of taking the path of least resistance. The fleeting emotions and pain are all a part of what it means to be human, and the singer wishes to hold onto them dearly in the present, now that they have found kindness from someone. They communicate that the connections forged with others are what should be held onto as they hold immense meaning.
The chorus then delves into a desire to find a place where the singer can return despite the inevitability of pain and impermanence. The singer asks that in the wake of uncertainty, even if bruised and battered, they would like to be able to return to a place of kindness that made them feel safe. The song concludes by speaking of how in this shared, vast world, there are people monitoring others, and yet communication and expressing oneself without fear or judgement has been an uneasy task. Despite this difficulty, the singer wishes to connect with others and weave a single thought, like connecting two threads against the background of the pale sky.
