Living In Twilight

The Weepies are one of my favorite bands. Their songs speak to me personally. Particularly Living In Twilight. I don't know exactly what the song is about (and I can't find anything online from the band that explains it) but I know what it's about to me.

When I am in a "foggy" place in my head, this is the closest I have ever heard someone articulate what I'm going through. I am equal parts of this song. I am the first character, the one for whom the song was written. And I am the second character, the narrator of the story, if you will.

Living In Twilight
Written and composed by Deb Talan and Steve Tannen

You look darkly on the day
With memories to light your way
A little sad but it’s all right
We are always living in twilight

No one knocks upon your door
Until you don’t care anymore
A little alone but it’s all right
We are always living in twilight

Living in a dream, walking in between the sunrise and sunset
Living in a dream, walking in between sunset and sunrise

You get tied up in your day,
So I let go and walk away
And now we’re loose ends of the night
We are always living in twilight

So it goes, though no one knows you like they used to do
Have a drink, the sky is sinking toward a deeper blue
And you’re still alright
Step out into twilight

So I stumble home at night
Like I’ve stumbled through my life
With ghosts and visions in my sight
We are always living in twilight
We are always living in twilight
