Night Light Lyrics

Write a note on the back of your hand
Ease your soul, you can understand
Take good pride in what you had
The day is done, the day is gone
Again

I'll be waiting up at midnight
When you feel
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me

Blackened sky is closing in
Concrete walls sit still and the autumn's been
Cool breeze, and the cocktails fight
This bitter taste, this bitter waste of mine

I'll be waiting up at midnight
When you feel
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me
It's the ghost you made of me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

At the beginning she seems to be giving life lessons: “ease your soul” is something that many of should try to listen to as well as “take good pride in what you had” and writing a note at the back of our hand could be many times useful. But when she sings: “the day is done; the day is gone, again”, she clearly seems to be talking about routine. Maybe when she means that routine made her a ghost, meaning that she isn't relaly living but just repeating actions

Soory, I meant "maybe what she means is that routine made her a ghost..."
