Turn On the Lights Lyrics
We're sending out a message to the future,
that once could not communicate
Don't think it's something thats electric,
just 'cause we're using the radio waves.
We're turning on the lights,
some through the holes of time.
Flip on the switch, illuminate the future,
send a shock through the power lines.
Turn it up so everyone hears it,
transmit the signal to the world.
You gotta listen for what you're missing,
'cause it's gonna change your life.
We're turning on the lights,
down through the holes of time.
Flip on the switch, illuminate the future,
send a shock through the power lines.
Flip on a switch, illuminate the future.
I wanna see the lights illuminate the night.
Our endless hearts burning like the stars,
lights to the world, all rise.
We're turning on the lights,
down through the holes of time.
Flip on the switch, illuminate the future.
Send a shock through the power lines.
(Flip on a switch, illuminate the future)
lights to the world, all rise.
Flip on a switch, illuminate the future.
that once could not communicate
Don't think it's something thats electric,
just 'cause we're using the radio waves.
some through the holes of time.
Flip on the switch, illuminate the future,
send a shock through the power lines.
transmit the signal to the world.
You gotta listen for what you're missing,
'cause it's gonna change your life.
down through the holes of time.
Flip on the switch, illuminate the future,
send a shock through the power lines.
Flip on a switch, illuminate the future.
Our endless hearts burning like the stars,
lights to the world, all rise.
down through the holes of time.
Flip on the switch, illuminate the future.
Send a shock through the power lines.
(Flip on a switch, illuminate the future)
lights to the world, all rise.
Flip on a switch, illuminate the future.

I believe this song is about showing your Christianity by acts, not words. By "turning on the lights" I believe Matt means that your works can be seen. If the lights are off, then you have to rely on words. So yea, it's about showing Christianity be acts, not words.
