however as far as meaning goes i think this song is about our search for a global sense of community and how we all as human beings long to find our place in the world... and in that search for purpose many people get lost in the darkness of lies, propaganda, effortless comfort (aka ignorance), and so on. Being "afraid of the light" and "feeling shaky" meaning that we're scared of what the truth holds and discovering that who we are may not be who we want to be; but the only way to know fully is to expose ourselves to the light and not sheltering ourselves behind our own shadows...that's why we join cults because we are afraid to discover ourselves by ourselves, we want help but in reality you gotta do it yourself. I think the title is significant because that's how we literally connect; through understanding. you know what i mean?
just gotta say this song has #swag
