The song is a story, set the morning after a night out with a best friend. Anything that happens in the morning is in present tense, and anything that happened the night before, past.

Any confusion brought on by the lyrics is intentional. I like things enigmatic; it creates conversation pieces.
Lyrics
Eyes like the sun
We set in the morning light
I’m next to you
Dreaming in hues
And I remember the way we screamed
The way we laughed we made tears obsolete
If you don’t forget this night, you’ll never forget me
Our eyes were wide
As we drank in the moonlight
Rest was an option
A choice we could not make
And I remember everything
The lights on the screen
And the words that surrounded us
Shrouded us, astounded us
Stand outside with me
And let’s dream wide awake
Stand beside me
And let’s sing the notes that we can’t hit
Let’s be
Everything we can’t be
Eyes like the sun
We set in the morning light
And we thrive in the night
Our eyes were wide
As we drank in the moonlight
And we sleep in the daytime
