I think that this is one of their more overlooked songs-but it's not a meaningless, empty, one only meant to be catchy.
The name is what throws people off the most, you would assume it's about self harm like "Guns for Hands," but it's more about personality.
"I'm double sided/ and I just can't hide/ I kinda like it" Is one of the stanzas that repeats constantly, which I think means two personalities- One at night, and one during the day. During the day, you're happy, cheery, etc, but at night, when you are alone in the dark, you begin to worry and overthink and drive yourself crazy.
Another thing that points to this is the " I will be saved/ for one whole day,", meaning you will be saved from worrying for another day. When the light comes, " I will rise and stand my ground/ waiting for night's return" meaning you will stop overthinking.
I'm the type of person who overthinks and goes a little crazy at night, freaking OUT about everything, making promises to myself or goals, hence the "My prayer's schizophrenic," . I think it means that your judgement or thoughts are so clouded by overthinking that you are praying to, or thinking about, problems that are nonexistent.
Overall, I think this song is about how night is not a time for partying, like so much social media tries to tell us- it's also a hard time for many people, the ones who overthink and worry.
