about

'Light Me Up' stemmed from feeling constrained in a long distance relationship and the itchiness of staying in it because that's what I thought "I should be doing" not because it felt good. Trying to follow of what I thought society wanted of me, brought on an uncontrollable rebellious urge to "break rules." At the same time, my dad was struggling with depression/suicidal thoughts and my close proximity to him along with a conversation we had about "checking out" from everything, stuck with me and lead me to explore these different shades of darkness in this song.
