Jesus Nitelite

Jesus Nitelite is an alternative rock song by Eve 6 composed by Max Collins, Jon Siebels, and Tony Fagenson. It was released as track 6 on the album Eve 6 on 1998-04-28.

Unlike most Eve 6 songs, Jesus Nitelite is slower, more reserved, and features a more melodious sound. The song describes a person of less-than-perfect moral character pining after someone who is very righteous and probably religious, and is oblivious to the admiration. The person is unable to properly express their feelings and keep kicking themself because they missed the right time to do so. In general, I enjoy songs where a person ineptly fails at speaking properly to their crush because it reminds me so much of my younger self, and, when coupled with this song's fantastic sound and vague lyrics, I really love it.

Lyrics

Your eyes shine bright like a Jesus nitelite
I'd like to touch your positive vibes
Indifferent eyes won't give me the time
May I help put aside your moral fiber

You're dressed in white and my face is white
I'd like to be a colorful sight to see
I'm only here in a background
Here on the ground lays my head
I sleep and then I wake make sounds and go to bed and wake again

The time is right but I feel all wrong
It wastes away until it's gone
The time is right but I feel all wrong
It fades away and now you're gone

Yeah, my time is right, and still I feel all wrong
It wastes away and now you're gone

You're walking by
I'm standing by
Behind the light
I'm standing by
By and by

The time is right but I feel all wrong
It wastes away until it's gone
The time is right but I feel all wrong
It fades away and now you're gone

Yeah, my time is right, but still I feel all wrong
It wastes away until it's gone, now it's gone, and here we go

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh oh oh oh,
Yeah! Yeah! Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
