Dais Records welcomes Swedish synth-pop masters Kite with "Don't Take The Light Away"
Download & stream: found.ee/DTTLA
Beloved Swedish synth-pop duo Kite’s first single for Dais Records, “Don’t Take The Light Away,” captures the duo's chemistry at its most urgent, thrilling, and apocalyptic.
Described as a song about “the war between energies,” singer Nicklas Stenemo’s wounded croon leads a rising tide of stabbing strings, pulsing percussion, and looming bass orchestrated by keyboardist Christian Hutchinson Berg, surging to a mass-chanted chorus both desperate and triumphant (“dance, let them dance into me / people versus people can’t see / hands should be holding hands”).
The song churns and burns until, suddenly, words are not enough - the song turns instrumental, smoke spills across the stage, and the melody becomes a battle cry. Like the best of Kite’s music, it fuses theater and catharsis into an anthem of universal yearning, born of “the struggle to keep a flickering candle lit in a very dark space.”

"Don't Take The Light Away" lyrics:
You take the sun away
You pass it on to me
You turn to dark again
I dream cause I can
Dance, let them dance for me
Tears will come down some day
Tears cause they’re hard as wood
Would you let them burn
Don't take the light away
My hopes my dreams my life
Don't take the sun from me
My hopes my dreams my life
Dance, let them dance into me
People vs people can’t see
Hands should be holding hands
Hands should be holding hands
Burn, let them burn for me
Fear not, cause they can not touch me
Hearts should be lost in hearts
Hearts should be lost in hearts
Don't take the light away
My hopes my dreams my life
Don't take the sun from me
My hopes my dreams my life
