Discover the story of the song > Candles – Daughter

The song is about a girl who goes with a boy into a forest at night and feels scared of what might happen. She is reminded that she is too shy for her age, but both of them stay silent. The girl knows that they will never be lovers and they are just keeping each other warm under the covers. The song repeats the line "Blow out all the candles" to symbolize leaving the past behind and moving forward.
