[Verse 1]
Daylight
Eat a piece of cake to start the day right
Join in my crusade shoutin' at everyone "Be nice"
When I'm not even nice myself
No, I don't even like myself
[Pre-Chorus]
Shoutin' at everyone
I shout at every person
[Chorus]
Do not ignore me
Are you for me or against me?
Hold yourself against me
Can anyone hear this?
I feel so far from the people
Who are nearest
[Verse 2]
If you see somethin', please call this number
I don't drink the water
I just wish that everything would be right
When I don't even know what's right
No, I don't know what that'd be like
[Pre-Chorus]
My friends and family
We're all in therapy sayin'
[Chorus]
Do not ignore me (Do not ignore me)
Are you for me or against me?
Hold yourself against me
Can anyone hear this? (Can anyone hear this?)
I feel so far from the people
Who are nearest
Do not ignore me (Do not ignore me)
Are you for me or against me?
Hold yourself against me
Can anyone hear this? (Can anyone hear this?)
I feel so far from the people
Who are nearest
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Do not ignore me (Do not ignore me)
Are you for me or against me?
Hold yourself against me
Can anyone hear this? (Can anyone hear this?)
I feel so far from the people
Who are nearest
Do not ignore me (Do not ignore me)
Are you for me or against me?
Hold yourself against me
Can anyone hear this? (Can anyone hear this?)
I feel so far from the people
Who are nearest

An October 2020 Clash article quotes Hannah Joy saying:
I was at university once and there were all these signs on the walls saying BE NICE IT’S NOT THAT HARD. The tone of the message itself actually wasn’t very nice or kind… We are always looking around at other people thinking ‘are you on my team...
Tim and I wrote this one together from the ground up, which is a new thing for us. That bit where I laugh in the breakdown, that’s literally from the demo, because I’m saying something wrong, and we just left it in there because it felt like the spirit of the song was in that. It’s intense but playf...
