Cover art for No Sunlight lyrics by Death Cab for Cutie

according to ben gibbard: "As I'm sure other people feel as we get older, our windows of possibilities start slowly closing. In that song, [it's] represented by the clouds coming in and there's no more sunlight. As a child you look up, and you could lay on your back [and look] at the sky and anything was possible, and the older you get the less that is true."
