Love Into the Light Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know I'm not perfect
I know I got issues
I know that I've got a sordid past
And, yeah, some bad tattoos
I'm not a model
I'm not a saint
I'm sorry, but I am just not sorry
'Cause I swear and cause I drink


[Chorus]
Maybe it's about all of the time
To let all of the love back in the light
Maybe it's about the perfect place
To let go and forget about the hate
Love into the light

[Verse 2]
I know we're all different
Baby, that's life
But all of these differences
They make me feel alive

And I've got this question, yeah
Been burning through my head
Can't we all get over ourselves
And just stop talkin' shit?
[Chorus]
Maybe it's about all of the time
To let all of the love back in the light
Maybe it's about the perfect place
To let go and forget about the hate
Love into the light

[Bridge]
All of the shit talk, yeah, all the chatter
Cuts like a knife, yeah, kills like a dagger
Love into the light
All that I have, yeah, all that I'm after
Love in this life, it's what really matters
Love into the light

[Chorus]
Maybe it's about all of the time
To let all of the love back in the light
Maybe it's about the perfect place
To let go and forget about the hate
Love into the light

[Bridge]
All of the shit talk, yeah, all the chatter
Cuts like a knife, yeah, kills like a dagger
Love into the light
All that I have, yeah, all that I'm after
Love in this life, it's what really matters
Love into the light
[Outro]
Love into the light
Love into the light
Love into the light

Genius Annotation

In the original version of the song, performed on Kesha’s reality show My Crazy Beautiful Life, the lyrics to the second verse had been, “I know we’re all different / But, baby that’s life / Since when are these differences so wrong / That kids are taking their own lives?” However, they were changed on the studio version of the song for reasons unknown.

Love Into The Light is special for me because I wrote that song by myself. It’s a message from me to myself and also really relevant to my fans, especially anybody that has had to deal with bullies, which most young people have to. It’s about how we should all stop talking shit about each other and judging each other and hating each other and start accepting each other and loving each other. I know it’s been said a million times, but it can’t be said enough.
- Kesha
