Blue Light

About Blue Light

"Blue Light" has a dreamy, ethereal quality to it, and the lyrics suggest a longing for escape and exploration. In the first verse, the speaker describes a blue light in their friend's room and in their eye. This blue light represents a sense of newness and possibility, something that the speaker wants to see "shine". In the second verse, the speaker sees a ship sailing by their window, and they perceive a whole world beneath it. This could represent a desire to explore beyond their own immediate surroundings and see what else is out there. .
