| "Look into the light...Look hard into the light..." Related Post: "Continual Themes and Subjects in the Work of Arcade Fire (a list)" |
I had fully intended to write a critical essay containing my thoughts, but I just ran out of time (and I guess I also saw it as a priority to write about Duck Dynasty). The reason I am not going to write this essay just yet, or, if I do write it I am not going to publish it, is that it is a specifically seasonal essay.
Essentially, here are my thoughts condensed to a few sentences: Arcade Fire write "Anti-Advent" songs, songs that portray light in a conflicted, confused, convoluted, ambivalent, and often negative tone (or light, if you will excuse the pun). Here is one example, an easy one. In "The Sprawl II" Regine sings
Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small
Then we can never get away from the sprawl
Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains
And there’s no end in sight
I need the darkness. Someone, please cut the lights!
In Arcade Fire's world "lights" are something to be avoided, something to get away from, and something one should not trust. What I wanted to do was juxtapose their way of singing about "light" with the Christian understanding of Christ being the light of the world, and of his light being that which liberates and saves people.
But alas, I ran out of time to write the essay. I spent a great deal of effort searching through all their songs, and so I really have not even left the "research" stage yet. And thus, two days before Christmas I present to you my index or appendix or whatever of every (that I could find) Arcade Fire song that mentions "light, darkness, day, night, mirrors, and reflections." I just want the thoughts to get out there.
This is a long blog post, but everything from here on out is song titles and lyrics. I encourage you to listen through the songs and seek out what they are trying to convey throughout the course of 4 albums, an EP, and a demo.
This index will be listed in chronological order according to album release.
When the entire song essentially revolves around light or related things, the entire song is quoted.
Albums are boldfaced, song titles are in quotes, and lyrics are italicized.
Also, here is another Arcade Fire post entitled: "Continual Themes and Subjects in the Work of Arcade Fire (a list)"

"Accidents"
Two blind kids in wheelchairs are crossing the street
And they get hit by the ambulance
Because the light was green
And I wait for the punchline
But it never comes

"In the Attic"
Cities that shine like El Dorado
Now it's sleeping in the Shadow
And I can't wake it up again
Stars above you are shining roads
And no one knows quite where it goes
And I can't get to sleep again
Stars above you shine on cue
Now they're acting a bit confused
And I can't make them shine again
Now it's sleeping in the Shadow
And I can't wake it up again
Stars above you are shining roads
And no one knows quite where it goes
And I can't get to sleep again
Stars above you shine on cue
Now they're acting a bit confused
And I can't make them shine again

"No Cars Go"
--quoted in the Neon Bible section
"Headlights Look Like Diamonds"
The red lights mean you're leaving
The white one's mean returning
Tell me how this story ends
And I'll keep them fires burning
The headlights look like diamonds
The taillights burn like coals
Tell me how this story ends
Before the fires go cold
The white one's mean returning
Tell me how this story ends
And I'll keep them fires burning
The headlights look like diamonds
The taillights burn like coals
Tell me how this story ends
Before the fires go cold

"Cars and Telephones"
Because I like cars more than telephones
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm going to drive
The silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate
God saying, "Hurry, don't be late"
Soon the sun will rise
That's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm going to drive
The silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate
God saying, "Hurry, don't be late"
Soon the sun will rise
That's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around

Calling from down inside a well
“See that silver shine?”
She said to come claim what was mine
So down I fell, down into the water black
My prison cell, only the moon was shining back!

Dear God, I’m a good Christian man
In your glory, I know you understand
That you gotta work hard and you gotta get paid
My girl’s thirteen, but she don’t act her age
She can sing like a bird in cage
Oh Lord, if you could see her when she’s up on that stage!

To seat my daughter there by your right hand
I know that you’ll do what’s right, Lord
For they are the lanterns and you are the light
Now I’m overcome
By the light of day
My lips are near
But my heart is far away
Tell me what to say
I’ll be your mouthpiece!
Into the light of a bridge that burns
As I drive from the city with the money that I earned
Into the black of a starless sky
I’m staring into nothing and I’m asking you why:
Lord, will you make her a star
So the world can see who you really are?

I dreamt I drove home to Houston
On a highway that was underground
There was no light that we could see
As we listened to the sound of the engine failing
"Half Light I"
You told us that
We were too young
Now that night’s closing in
And in the half light
We run
We were too young
Now that night’s closing in
And in the half light
We run
Lock us up safe
And hide the key
But the night tears us loose
And in the half light
We’re free
Strange how the half light
Can make a place new
You can’t recognize me
And I can’t recognize you
We run through the streets
That we know so well
And the houses hide so much
But in the half light
None of us can tell
They hide the ocean in a shell
The ocean in a shell
Our heads are just houses
Without enough windows
They say you hear human voices
But they’re only echoes
They’re only echoes
They’re only echoes
Only echoes
They’re only echoes
Only echoes
We are not asleep
We are in the streets
We are in the streets
"Half Light II (No Celebration)"

"We Used To Wait"
I used to write
I used to write letters
I used to sign my name
I used to sleep at night
Before the flashing lights settled deep in my brain
But by the time we met
The times had already changed
I used to write letters
I used to sign my name
I used to sleep at night
Before the flashing lights settled deep in my brain
But by the time we met
The times had already changed
So I never wrote a letter
I never took my true heart
I never wrote it down
So when the lights cut out
I was lost standing in the wilderness downtown
I never took my true heart
I never wrote it down
So when the lights cut out
I was lost standing in the wilderness downtown

"Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)"
They heard me singing and they told me to stop
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose
But late at night the feelings swim towards the surface
‘Cause on the surface the city lights shine
They’re calling at me, “come and find your kind!”

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small
Then we can never get away from the sprawl
Living in the sprawl
The dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains
And there’s no end in sight
I need the darkness. Someone please cut the lights!
We rode our bikes to the nearest park
Sat under the swings, we kissed in the dark
You shield my eyes from the police lights
We run away, but we don’t know why
Black river, your city lights shine
They’re screaming at us, “we don’t need your kind!”
Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small
Then we can never get away from the sprawl
Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains

Reflektor (2013)
"Reflektor"
Trapped in a prison, in a prism
of light
Alone in the darkness, darkness of white
We fell in love, alone on a stage
In the reflective age
Entre la nuit, la nuit et l’aurore (Between the night, night and dawn.)
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts (Between the kingdoms, of the living and of the dead.)
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts (Between the kingdoms, of the living and of the dead.)
If this is heaven
I don't know what it’s for
If I can’t find you there
I don't care
I don't know what it’s for
If I can’t find you there
I don't care
I thought I found a way to enter
It’s just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
It’s just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
I thought I found the connector
It’s just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
It’s just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
Now, the signals we send, are deflected again
We're so connected, but are we even friends?
We fell in love when I was nineteen
And now we're staring at a screen
Entre la nuit, la nuit et l’aurore
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts
If this is heaven
I need something more
I need something more
Just a place to be alone
Cause you're my home
It’s just a reflection of a reflection
Of a reflection of a reflection
Of a reflection of a reflection
But I see you on the other side?
We all got things to hide
It’s just a reflection of a reflection
Of a reflection of a reflection
Of a reflection of a reflection
But I see you on the other side
We all got things to hide
We all got things to hide
All right, let's go back
Our song it skips, on little silver discs
Our love is plastic, we'll break it to bits
I want to break free, but will they break me
Down, down, down?
Don't mess around
Down, down, down?
Don't mess around

"Here Comes the Nighttime"
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down you head inside
'Cause the lights don't work
Yeah nothing works they say you don't mind
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
And the missionaries
They tell us we will be left behind
Been left behind
A thousand times, a thousand times
If you want to be righteous
If you want to be righteous, get in line
'Cause here comes the night time
Here comes the night time...
They say, heaven's a place
Yeah, heaven's a place and they know where it is
But you know where it is?
It's behind the gate, they won't let you in
And when they hear the beat, coming from the street, they lock the door
But if there's no music up in heaven, then what's it for?
When I hear the beat, my spirit's on me like a live-wire
A thousand horses running wild in a city on fire
But it starts in your feet, then it goes to your head
If you can't feel it, then the roots are dead
And if you're the judge, then what is our crime?
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time...
Now the preachers they talk
Up on the satellite
If you're looking for Hell, just try looking inside
Here comes the night time, the night time...
When you look in the sky, just try looking inside
God knows what you might find
When you look in the sky, just try looking inside
God knows what you might find
Here comes the night time
"You Already Know"
When your love is right
When your love is right
You can't sleep at night
You've been sleeping just fine
But when your love is bad
When your love is bad
Don't know why you're so sad
But it's time to go
"Here Comes The Nighttime II"
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time...
"Awful Sound (Oh Eurydice)"
We know there's a price to pay for love in a reflective age
I met you up upon a stage, our love in a reflective age
Oh no, now you're gone
"It's Never Over (Oh Orpheus)"
We stood beside
A frozen sea
I saw you out
In front of me
Reflected light
A hollow moon
Oh Orpheus, Eurydice
Its over too soon
"Aferlife"
Afterlife, oh my God, what an awful word
After all the breath and the dirt
And the fires that burn
And after all this time
And after all the ambulances go
And after all the hangers-on are done
Hanging on to the dead lights
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know
Can we work it out?
We scream and shout 'till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
Scream and shout 'till we work it out?
'Till we work it out, 'till we work it out
'Till we work it out, 'till we work it out
Afterlife, I think I saw what happens next
It was just a glimpse of you
Like looking through a window
Or a shallow sea
Could you see me?
And after all this time
It's like nothing else we used to know
After all the hangers-on are done
Hanging on to the dead lights
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know
Can we work it out?
Let's scream and shout 'till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
If you scream and shout 'till we work it out?
But you say
Oh, when love is gone
Where does it go?...
And after this
Can it last another night?
After all the bad advice
Had nothing at all to do with life
I've gotta know
Can we work it out?
Scream and shout 'till we work it out?...
But you say
Oh, when love is gone
Where does it go?...
Is this the afterlife?
It's just an afterlife, with you...
