Blue Light Lyrics
[Verse 1: Kele Okereke]
You'll find it hiding in shadows
You'll find it hiding in cupboards
It will walk you home safe every night
It will help you remember
[Chorus: Kele Okereke]
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
[Verse 2: Kele Okereke & Matt Tong]
I still feel you in the taste of cigarettes
What could I ever run to?
Just tell me it's tearing you apart
Just tell me you cannot sleep
[Chorus: Kele Okereke]
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
[Bridge: Kele Okereke]
And you didn't even notice when the sky turned blue
And you couldn't tell the difference between me and you
And I nearly didn't notice the gentlest feeling
The gentlest feeling
The gentlest feeling
The gentlest feeling
You'll find it hiding in shadows
You'll find it hiding in cupboards
It will walk you home safe every night
It will help you remember
[Chorus: Kele Okereke]
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
[Verse 2: Kele Okereke & Matt Tong]
I still feel you in the taste of cigarettes
What could I ever run to?
Just tell me it's tearing you apart
Just tell me you cannot sleep
[Chorus: Kele Okereke]
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
If that's the way it is then that's the way it is
[Bridge: Kele Okereke]
And you didn't even notice when the sky turned blue
And you couldn't tell the difference between me and you
And I nearly didn't notice the gentlest feeling
The gentlest feeling
The gentlest feeling
The gentlest feeling
[Outro: Kele Okereke, Matt Tong & Gordon Moakes]
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
You are the bluest light (You are the bluest light)
About
Genius Annotation
“Blue Light” is the fifth track on Silent Alarm and is an overall quieter track than the others on the album, although it still relies heavily on its core drums/bass/electric guitar sound. Kele Okereke explained the song:
It’s a really gentle sounding song about coming to terms with intimacy, and how important that can be.
