A light that never comes lyrics
The song describes waiting through difficult times for relief or salvation that never arrives. Over several verses, it references withstanding pressures, challenges that make one stronger, and dark nights. The chorus reflects on waiting endlessly for "a light that never comes," and chasing after the sun instead of finding relief.
A light that never comes lyrics
- 1. "A Light ThatNever Comes" (feat. Steve Aoki) Nah, you don't know me Lightning above and a fire below me You cannot catch me, cannot hold me You cannot stop, much less control me When it rains, it pours When the floodgates open, brace your shores That pressure don't care when it breaks your doors Say it's all you can take, better take some more (Oh) 'Cause I know what it's like to test fate Had my shoulders pressed with that weight Stood up strong in spite of that hate (Oh) Night gets darkest right before dawn What don't kill you makes you more strong And I been waiting for it so long The nights go on Waiting for a light that never comes I chase the sun Waiting for a light that never comes (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) Waiting for a light that never comes When I was young, they told me, they said Make your bed, you lie in that bed A king can only reign 'til instead There comes that day it's "off with his head" (Oh) Night gets darkest right before dawn What don't kill you makes you more strong You'll have my mercy then when you're gone The nights go on Waiting for a light that never comes I chase the sun Waiting for a light that never comes (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) Waiting for a light that never comes And I told them: Nah, you don't know me Lightning above and a fire below me You cannot catch me, cannot hold me You cannot stop, much less control me When it rains, it pours When the floodgates open, brace your shores That pressure don't care, it breaks your doors Say it's all you can take, better take some more (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) Waiting for a light that never comes The nights go on Waiting for a light that never comes I chase the sun Waiting for a light that never comes (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) Waiting for a light that never comes
