Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
One single dose of your medicine
You tell me to leave but I come back again
I don't see what all the fuss is about 'cause I'm okay
Soon you will see that I got ability to get my ways
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
Don't keep in the dark, don't keep in the dark
I was alone until I found Johnny
He was a good boy until he got behind me
No she didn't, yes she did!
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
Don't keep in the dark, don't keep in the dark
They told me to get my motherfuckin' hands up
But I was handcuffed to the bed and couldn't get em up
I'm your sunshine, sunrise (you're my sunshine)
You make it sound easily for me to cry (so easily for me to cry)
I'm your sunshine, come get by
My fears go black in the moonlight
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
I said don't keep in the, I said don't keep in the dark
I get away with it, I get away it
Ah
I get away with it, I get away it
They say I get away with murder
They say I get away with murder
They say I get away with murder
You tell me to leave but I come back again
I don't see what all the fuss is about 'cause I'm okay
Soon you will see that I got ability to get my ways
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
Don't keep in the dark, don't keep in the dark
I was alone until I found Johnny
He was a good boy until he got behind me
No she didn't, yes she did!

He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
