When did I become afraid of the dark?
Are my eyeballs just yet to adjust to seeing the light?
The room I’m in is still the same, the shadows have not rearranged it
No, the only thing that’s changed is how I see at night
I fumble for the switch and strap on infrareds
And wish for sunshine when the morning’s somewhere else
But I can’t change what time it is or dilate my irises
Only what I look at, and I’m looking at myself
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
Well, who else could I be when I can’t hardly see?
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
I’m no one if I’m nowhere in between
When did I become afraid of the dark?
Was it when I left the cave and swore I’d never go back?
If we can’t see each other, then there’s no more use for hiding
I’ve decided I’ll abide it, why deny the color black?
I’m not a flower, not a solar-powered calculator
Damn my eyes for seeing what’s not there
I’ll trade in vision for a practiced intuition
Till my fears come to fruition I’m not scared
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
Well who else could I be when I can’t hardly see?
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
I’m no one if I’m nowhere in between
The future must know where you’ve been
The past predicts the state you’re in
The present did and will not last
Is, isn’t, was, have, hasn’t, has
All that I ask is keep those empty frames
If nobody’s in them, then no one is to blame
For your self-portraits, sign another name
Well, who should I be then, if I’ll never be the same?
I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night
Who else could I be when I can’t fucking see?
I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night
I’m nowhere now, here’s no one now to be
And if dreams can come true, what does that say about nightmares?
I’ll stay awake tonight - Hudba
"who else could i be, when i can't f/cking see?" will wood said calmly
Indeed he did.
Such a nice and calm man
Dr Sunshine died so we can have this song. Remember that, guys.
dr sunshine died for our sins

This song is a bop and a half until you're listening to it on a "strictly will wood" playlist and you completely forget about the 20 seconds of silence, and you're wondering if your youtube crashed until Thermodynamic Lawyer plays and scares the patty-flipping shit out of you.
*complete silence*
...
I HOLD MYSELF IN CONTEMPT
I didn't know I needed the term 'patty-flipping shit' until now
it's not complete silence it's just a very very quiet piano

I like how everytime this is animated every animator agrees when he goes “lOoKin at MYSEEEEELF” and “hARDLY SEEEE” the character gets their face close to the screen and they like scream
I'm not even an animator and I agree.
Shit you're right
I feel like I'd make my character scream out to the sun while standing on the moon
My mind animation does
This song is what paranoia feels like.
It's not paranoia-inducing, no no no, but it perfectly encapsulates what being paranoid feels like.
i feel like it also could fit questioning your gender, as it says “i am not the sunshine, i am not the moon at night”
@@bludraws094 * holy non-binary music stops *
@@wileatsglass *gender dysphoria music starts*
agreed
It’s funny because I listened to this while dealing with severe ocd
You just try to convince me this is not a turning point song for a villain
I won’t deny you… but instead I’ll ask you to join me.
no no... u have a point
Wait brb imma use that idea
Yep I see it oh and Toga Himiko out!
There's a really animatic about Killer Moth with this song
This is just a song about someone stumbling through there room at night trying to find the light switch and slowly getting frustrated because he can find it. AND IT SLAPS
WAIT WHAG
And then he turned himself into a light switch, funniest shit I ever seen
I mean it’s a metaphor
@@charlesmieth2467*will wood live studio recording of front street voice* "Metaphors, bro"
I feel like Will Wood has mastered the concept of “when you’re happy you hear the music, but when you’re sad you understand the lyrics”
i think two trucks definitely follows this rule too
Im not happy nor sad when listening to Will Wood, i am fearing for my life.
@@tomw3863 i suppose paranoia since the lyrics kinda makes sense
Fr, when im listening and i hear "he cums radiation"? Hits hard

I’ve been ignoring this in my recommended for like 5 months... I regret it so much
Guys, I don’t think theyre the sunshine or the moon at night.
I think you’re right
well, who else could they be when they can hardly see? 🧐
I think they're no one if they're nowhere in between 🙀

As some one who’s scared of the dark and suffers from paranoia this song is very relatable.
Same
like , im not scared of the “dark” but rather just pitch blackness or what i see in it yknow
Can u explain hoe it feels
@@minatomew almost constant fear, in my experience
I don't have paranoia but anxiety and occasional paranoia but not often, I'm so sorry you have paranoia it sucks to just have it as a random moment but constant/almost constant must be awful!
I really love this song and I think it's because I see it as a song about depression/mental illness. Because sunshine is usually affiliated with happiness and dark with sadness. If they "come out of the cave" maybe they seek help (therapy) or acknowledge the problem. But you cant really get rid of mental illness so youre stuck in the middle, not sunshine or the moon. You can't see what youre experiencing. Also lots more but i dont wanna sit here and type it out the song is good and comforts me 💜
Yeah, I was thinking of some sort of identity crisis... Yours makes a lot of sense too!
I was thinking of gender dysphoria, with sunshine being female and moon at night being male
"The cave" refers to Plato's allegory of the cave
there an eclipes
i like to picture it as a person named dr sunshine dying
"I am not the sunshine"
He can't reach perfection, happiness, things that others have.
"I am not the moon at night."
He has yet to fall into the spiral of darkness and despair, he is holding on to the ledge of sanity.
This is just what I see the song as, I see it as someone holding onto the ledge of insanity and sanity for dear life. But with every small thing that goes wrong, or every chance at happiness that vanishes - they grow tired of holding on. Like very little goes right for them.
I must say, quite a catchy song. Perfect for those who honestly are done with the bullshit others throw on them, and are switching sides.
The way he says "Calcu-layyytor", gahhh, love that
That line came up while I read this lol and I agree
calculator? more like calc ya later! (what does this even mean?)
to me this song sounds like someone who was so constantly misrepresented by their fans/haters as “the sunshine” (perfection) or “the moon at night” (evil) that they lost sense of themself, leading them to fall out of fame and into obscurity as they slowly lost their mind. that’s just my theory tho lol
That kinda makes sense with the later on "i will be my sunshine im will be my moon at night" could be a metaphor for being your own biggest fan and biggest critic
But that's just a theory, a music theory
I mean probably I mean look at sex, drugs, rock and roll so maybe your right
awesome
Why would the One (Natural) light in the Darkness represent evil tho? If he's afraid of the dark then the Moon Is a saving grace during nighttime
Maybe the title is the meaning of the song..I mean the dude in the song wants "sunshine" but he always that he's not the sunshine and at the end he changes his mind saying thats he'll be his sunshine..So in other words the sunshine is his doctor who died. ( this is in my theory about this beautiful song )
Edit: I'm mad that this song has 4 dislikes. >:(
will wood songs a lot about identity and lack thereof and this song is about losing yourself and reality. he contradicts himself because it's about him not being sure of his literal identity and awareness of self.
10 dislikes, time to rage.

YES
Nice
Literaly my favorite line in the whole song!!
For me its 0:52 even tho its not underrated lol
@@minatomew that part is literally the only part most people know. Its not underrated at all..
I feel like this is about someone originally being hopeless and having no where to go, but finally regaining control and independence after so long of not having it, hence him saying "I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night." But I also feel like he has someone he cares for, and that's his motivation.
he's not a solar-powered calculator folks
OR a flower!
Damn his eyes for seeing what’s not there!
0:53 time stamp for me-
No that’s _our_ timestamp.
**cue russian anthem**
that part is so good omfgg

nah, he's saturn.
Nah he just the cosmic space tadpole
maybe a planet, idk
Black hole, he’s a black hole
3:18 his voice right here is so good for no reason
My personal interpretation of the song is about someone struggling with an identity crisis and they dont know who they are but nothing feels right to them despite everything in their life staying the same they feel different and unhappy "the room i'm in is still the same the shadows have not rearranged", but everyone keeps telling them who they are, telling them how they should feel and they wish they could feel it too and be happy with that identity but they can't "i wish for sunshine when the morning is somewhere else but i cant change what time of day it is" and they would do anything to just know who they are and be happy with their identity "I'll trade in vision for a practiced intuition" until eventually they just give in to an identity that isnt theirs because what else can they do when everyone tells them thats who they are and thats how they should feel "Well who should i be then if i'll never be the same?" "I will be the sunshine i will be the moon at night" even if they dont feel like it and know that they will never truly be happy with that perspective "I'm nowhere now, heres no one now to be" "I'll stay awake tonight"
Reminds me of the music from Tim burton movies but it would def fit an anime opening for sure. Like from a psychological/mystery/thriller anime
Is that Jim Hawkins I spy?
@@loveyhope yes. TP is one of my favorite Disney movies lol
@@Toseuteuu Treasure Planet is a freakin masterpiece yet so under-rated

4:34 I’ve listened to Cotard’s Solution so many times that I thought he was gonna start screaming
For some reason this song feel like the in between of living your best life and totally giving up. It gives off paranoia that feels similar to when your doing good but then you can feel things get worse.
me when some doctor named sunshine dies or smth idk i didn't read the lore
The fact that I have a villain OC named Dr. Sunshine....
HE A DEAD BOI NOW
you must be in daydreaming heaven lmao
This is their theme song now
There is a roblox game called midnight horrors, in it there is a killer called Dr. Sunshine, he has a custom theme and it fucking slaps to hell and back.
@@runicjester6926 so hes dead...
THIS IS NOW OFFICIALLY MY FAVOURITE SONG
For some reason, this reminds me of the creepy images that appear behind my eyes with no thought or experience to provoke them.
Wonder what's going on, but enough about me.
Good song.

Done I have on called songs that make me feel like a Tim Burton or Disney villain

It sounds like it could either be a samba song for some reason or an anime opening for an anime like beastars or something-

WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE QUIET "la la la. la la la." AT 1:52 ???
I don’t think it’s an actual person saying la la la I think it may be some type of horn
I have no idea what this is or where it’s from but I have stumbled across it at midnight and oh my god this is laced with something it’s so good
It’s from the album Self-ish, which seems to be about the artist’s (Will Wood) struggles with mental health back in 2012, which he claims multiple times to not remember
my cousin introduced me to this song and now im in love with it
Same story here.
your in love with your cousin ?

I heard it on insta and thought it was a anime op for like some psychological thriller anime.
It’s so similar to kakeguri opening
I AM NOT SUNSHINE I'M AM NOT THE MOON AT NIGHT
ОБОЖАЮ ЭТУ ПЕСНЮ И ОСОБЕННО ЭТУ ЧАСТЬ!! И КРАСИВО ДА

@@paranoidWarden Sono Chi no Sadame (Jojos op 1), the other one is Bloody Stream (Jojos op 2). This song sounds like both tbh
Adria it really does kind of give bloody stream vibes wait-
I discovered this song literally two days ago and it's become a top favorite of mine very quickly.
The chorus sounds like a badass anime opening
This is a song that officially made me hyperfixated on Will Wood
My partner wants to start a Will Wood Cult and sent me a playlist of his songs
This was among them
Yet another of the reasons I am joining
Not me imagining my sickly wholesome ocs having an anime and this being the opening
this song has some very heavy saturn and sun related symbolism. the album cover is literally shiva in place of where the sun should be, the song is named dr sunshine is dead, and he's singing about embracing the dark and the color black. if you are aware of the archetypes of the sun and saturn then im sure you could extrapolate what that means.
god this song floods my body with euphoria i love will wood so much
I discovered will wood with this video then I listened to the whole album and then listened to all albums ( I will hyperfixate over a small reference that reminds me of will wood)
I'm in love with every song this man makes
' ' I'm not the Sunshine I'm not the moon at night well who else could I be when I can hardly see' ' love this part 😃
I remember last year watching sleepykinqs map of this song
Guys it just came into my head that this song could be about a people pleaser who doesn't know who they are anymore because they keep changing their personality for different people to make sure that everyone likes them
I like how the user's channel is "exhaustedanger", I read it as exhaust danger instead of exhausted anger lmao.
It's such a great song and it perfectly captures the mumblings of an insane person. 10/10
One of my friends played this in class and now I'm obsessed with it
why did i think of an animation for the whole entire song about my oc that’s based off of sun and moon from security breach
OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS SO GOOD??!!?!
i can now say that im friends with this kids nephew who also worked on this song! yesss
dudes* not kids
Nice
It's great when you have an OC that's a chimera abomination of the sun and moon with identity issues
me, an empath, sensing that he's neither the sunshine nor the moon at night
This song may be about paranoia but damn i bet this would be one hell of a villain song
i feel like anyone who listens to any wood will song get like a sense a power
W-what playlist do I even put this in?
Misunderstood villain or songs that make you feel like god
@@mammaisabelle7057 hrmm 🤔
I said “Twilight,” as in a loghter hearted rock type melody and dark message/lyrics.
lmao don't know if you still want an answer but i would put it in one that's like "i get to choose to dethrone the god" er something that just makes you feel like head honcho of something (ex. the world so then it's to dethrone god)
@@starnexs oh swag 😏
how could he kill off THE dr. sunshine from the hit song "he'll use me for his needle show"........
I can’t believe I haven’t found this song until now it’s so amazing
It's always "When did I become afraid of the dark?" and not "How did I become afraid of the dark?" 😔
0:55
Sun and moon (fnaf)
Song was in my head today
This is going directly into my TMA playlist
At the end of this song i always feel like cotard's solution is abt to start-
BRO A LOT OF THESE LYRICS REMIND ME OF SECURITY BREACH
I can never understand what Will Wood songs are about but they are bangers so I don't even care anymore
This hits different once you actually think about the lyrics tbh
Best song to listen to while shiting in toilet.
interesting
this song is so immaculate with headphones on
No words can describe how much I love this song.
I think about this song every time I can't see something
If this doesn't play at my wedding, I ain't coming.
This is the only song that helps when i have a psychotic episode 😭 it also reminds me of sundrop/moondrop from FNAF!
This song hits me right in the identity disturbance. It feels like stumbling around in the dark. When you’re identity disturbed, no label or moniker or diagnosis feels sticky. It’s all like oil and water. Things feel good- euphoric even, when something feels like it will stay. But it always fades, always. In a word: darkness. You look at yourself and see blackness.
“All that I ask is, keep those empty frames
If nobody's in them, then no one is to blame
For your self-portraits, sign another name
Well, who should I be then, if I'll never be the same?”
So what do you do? You try to become your own sunshine. I think people with identity disturbance can relate to putting on a flashy, unique, beautiful identity to try and find something that finally feels right. (AKA the Manic Pixie Dream Girl. This is the source of every single one of them don’t @ me.) You try to become sunshine. But it’s wrong. It’s wrong in the pit of your stomach. No sunshine can last forever, and the sun sets. And you experience the darkest low yet. “I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night. Well who else could I be, when I can’t fucking see? I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night. I’m no one now, there’s no one now to be.”
So what’s the happy ending? Well it’s on the very next song on the album. Though intentionally it’s left vague. I think Will fought against the urge to have a satisfying answer to who he was, because as much as it hurts the real answer to identity disturbance is not to fight it. Not to dig down deeper, as in Hand Me My Shovel, I’m Going In! Not to desperately try to return to what you were once like, like on Self, with the resolution of “I’m gonna be myself again.” In fact, he contradicts this directly.
So on the final song, he sings:
“Well at 27 will I see
That I was born to be the man I'll be?
And if I change my self can I still stay me?
Or did I just change my mind?
I am a point in time and space
And I am the truths that I create
And so where my matter takes it's stand
No it doesn't matter who I am
No it doesn't matter who I am
And I'm gonna be”
Be. Not be nothing, not be himself, but to be. . Blank. It could be a blank space, for whatever he wants to be next. But I take it to mean: Just be. Don’t be the sunshine, don’t be the moon at night. Don’t search for yourself, because you won’t find it. A camera can’t take a picture of itself, after all. Don’t turn your identity inside out. Just be a point in time and space, and know people love you for you. Not for who you are, but for you. Just be!
