What is the meaning behind What Is Light Where Is Laughter lyrics?

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Twin Atlantic's 'What Is Light? Where Is Laughter?' explores the inner conflict and perplexity of a troubled love relationship, employing light and laughter as symbols for the two very hidden and hard to grasp feelings - hope and joy. The piece portrays the Rimbaudian struggle of man to discover bliss and understanding amid total darkness and disorder. The lyrics of 'What Is Light? Where Is Laughter?' very much reflect the whole range of negative feelings - also through the words angst, heartbreak, despair, reflection, and anger. But, on the other hand, the song also points to the necessity of negative feelings and confusion, the quest for meaning and understanding, the need for guidance and support, and the craving for love and possession. The words depict a whole emotional landscape ranging from distress and confusion to being caught in a situation where one feels totally overwhelmed, and it is quite possible that younger listeners will find it too strong. Besides, there are hints at self-harm ('cut my lip on broken bone', 'clean up the blood') that, albeit not very explicit, imply a certain amount of violence and emotional struggle which is more appropriate for adults rather than teenagers.
