about

Phil Jamieson says about ‘Lights On’: “I love moving my shoulders to this song. And hips. I think betrayed memories and ultimate forgiveness are at the forefront here, but then I could be entirely wrong about this. Maybe? A heist gone wrong? There is some money being taken in the 2nd verse. And some hiding. I know that the protagonist is keeping the lights on which is sweet :) It started off with sampling Billie Jean’s drums for the demo and then kind of went from there. Oscar Dawson sprinkled his fairy dust on it and Jackson McRae did those groovy snappy drums. A love affair gone wrong with money and locked doors? Yeah. Up to y’all I think x”

lyrics

I watch you on the street; you fall like all the others
Behind a memory that howls
And no one hears your beat, but I can still remember
All of those things that we found
And everybody knows that we're apart together
Like being alone in a crowd
And we can walk away just hold on to the lever
That body’s sure to be found

If I let you back in, would you close the door?
This joke is wearing thin, and I have run out of words tonight

Could I be faking this, the lights on honey left it on there for ya
There is no shaking this the lights on, lights on

There’s no one left to blame since you stole all the money
It’s stashed away in the hide
And I can hear you breathe, you're still awake and hiding
Don’t bother looking outside

If I let you back in, would you close the door?
This joke is wearing thin, and I have run out of words tonight

Could I be faking this, the lights on honey left it on there for ya
There is no shaking this, the lights on sugar left on there for ya oooooh
Could I be faking this, the lights on honey left it on there for ya oooohhhh
There is no shaking this, the lights on, lights on, lights on
