About

Joji’s finally moved on from tragic heartbreak, made peace with the past and his wrongdoings. He no longer wants to fight the “daylight”, but rather enjoy what life has to offer.

The song is the final single from his second studio album Nectar prior to its release, and marks the first collaboration...

Daylight Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wide awake, gettin' half-past zero
It's gettin' heated, so I leave the windows open
(Leave the windows open)
Preoccupied with a late night B-roll
Right now, laying here alone is heaven
(Here alone is heaven)

[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been a hero, helpless
I'm in hell
And I've cried up and down in these hallways
Blamed myself

[Chorus]
Bad luck, I don't wanna be home at midnight
Sun's up, I don't really wanna fight the daylight
I don't care if you moved on
I'm not layin' in bed with a fucked-up head
I'm not layin' in bed with a fucked-up

[Verse 2]
Sun-dried on the backyard patio
Drunk eyes 'cause I didn't give it a home run
Yeah, yeah
You're hiding on the FM radio
I sing along just to sing my thoughts at someone
Yeah, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been a hero, helpless
I'm in hell (I'm in hell)
And I've cried up and down in these hallways
Blamed myself

[Chorus]
Bad luck, I don't wanna be home at midnight
Sun's up, I don't really wanna fight the daylight
I don't care if you moved on
I'm not layin' in bed with a fucked-up head
I'm not layin' in bed with a fucked-up

What is the music video trying to express?

The end of the music video continues the theme from his previous singles.

Again, Joji wakes up from wrapping a space blanket, and walk towards the machines appeared in “Sanctuary”’s spaceship, while music from teasers of “Gimme Love” can be heard in the background. The barrel land he stands on also...
