Artificial Light Lyrics
Tell me your misery
Give us the antidote
I heard the voice of change behind a vacant note
All this tearing apart without a reform
Call it what you will
I'm not afraid to say
I've heard it all
Connection lost
We're standing by artificial light
You sell a fix for our defect
And all we find artificial light
Doesn't break the model
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
We want a real cure
No idle sympathy
The dark consuming light that you have failed to be
No, it's not enough
I resent this deprivation
Your remedy is not a weapon to slaughter the sorrow
It's just to keep you from feeling alone
I've heard it all
Connection lost
We're standing by artificial light
You sell a fix for our defect
And all we find artificial light
Doesn't break the model
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
Doesn't break the model
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
I'll never see what they see in you
Doesn't break the model
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
Doesn't break the model
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
Give us the antidote
I heard the voice of change behind a vacant note
All this tearing apart without a reform
Call it what you will
I'm not afraid to say
Connection lost
We're standing by artificial light
You sell a fix for our defect
And all we find artificial light
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
No idle sympathy
The dark consuming light that you have failed to be
No, it's not enough
I resent this deprivation
Your remedy is not a weapon to slaughter the sorrow
It's just to keep you from feeling alone
Connection lost
We're standing by artificial light
You sell a fix for our defect
And all we find artificial light
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!
I can't feel it in my bones
Nothing shattering my world
NO!

It seems as though its talking about how we find comfort and pleasure in the things of this world instead of in Jesus as we should
How we hear the voice of change behind a vacant note. That voice being God or the holy spirit calling to us but how we instead flock to that empty note or the comforts of this world
"You sell a fix for our defect, And all you find, artificial light"
Again just saying how its temporary and fake like an artificial light
It all points to the general idea that we lose our connection to God and seek temporary comfort in thw things of this world instead. But i could always be wrong lol :)
Behind the Song: "I've never understood a fan's soul-completing devotion to songs with a depiction of bleak circumstance, but vacant of any glimmer of solution. Don't get me wrong, I'm actually drawn to music that is dark and somber by it's very nature - obviously. I get it. But when I hear stories of how a band that sings about nothing but depression and desolation 'saved my life,' I wonder how. I know being able to relate to the struggle of others, and understanding that you're not alone in doing so, can be comforting... but is it enough? It's like the path getting clearer, easier... then finding it's a dead end." - Ryan Clark
