After a debut album (The Questions, April 2025) that captivated listeners around the world, and a luminous follow-up EP (Reflected Hearts, October 2025) that marked their artistic breakthrough, The Indie Pea close the year in style — and with a wink.

Lights On, Lights Out is their take on the imperfect beauty of the holiday season. Blending shimmering indie rock and orchestral pop, the song glows with the band’s trademark warmth: lush strings, radiant harmonies, and melodies that sway between melancholy and magic.

Lyrically, it’s pure The Indie Pea — poetic, self-aware, and quietly hopeful. There’s tinsel in your coffee, glitter in your bed, neighbors lighting the night sky in neon blue — and still, somehow, love in the air. Because maybe Christmas isn’t about perfection, but about the small moments that make the chaos worth it.

Carrying on the beloved TCBYML Christmas tradition (previously celebrated by Moving Into Tucson, The Hengles, and Certain Animals), Lights On, Lights Out turns seasonal stress into shimmering serenity.

Raise a glass to the mess, sing that carol off-key, and let the lights flicker as they may — because it’s Christmas anyhow.

The Indie Pea – Lights On, Lights Out Lyrics 
 
Snowflakes on the pavement, melting way too fast 
Plastic reindeer smiling, like they’re built to last 
All I wanted this December, was a quiet night with you 
But the neighbors strung up neon, now my ceiling glows in blue 
 
Lights on, lights out, it’s Christmas anyhow 
We’re stumbling through the season, don’t ask me why or how 
Raise a glass to chaos, sing a carol off-key loud 
Lights on, lights out, it’s Christmas anyhow 
 
Tinsel in my coffee, glitter in my bed 
Silent night is broken by the voices in my head 
Everyone’s pretending this is joy we can’t deny 
But your hand is warm in mine, and that’s enough tonight 
 
Lights on, lights out, it’s Christmas anyhow 
We’re stumbling through the season, don’t ask me why or how 
Raise a glass to chaos, sing a carol off-key loud 
Lights on, lights out, it’s Christmas anyhow 
 
Maybe we don’t need the perfect tree 
Maybe all we need is you and me 
Let the records crackle, let the fire burn low 
It’s the mess that makes the season glow 
 
Lights on, lights out, it’s Christmas anyhow 
We’re stumbling through the season, don’t ask me why or how 
Raise a glass to chaos, sing a carol off-key loud 
Lights on, lights out, it’s Christmas anyhow

The Indie Pea - Lights On, Lights Out

“Through the Ruined Sky” is a cinematic metal anthem about rising through devastation and finding strength in the storms that tried to break you. Emotional choruses, massive guitars, and a battle-scarred sense of hope fuel this track’s epic climb from ruin to resilience.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Baby, do you think that I could maybe try and make it colder?
Colder than the etched in stone
When I know I just wanna be your best friend
Baby, you'll find the time and place
Well maybe I like the rhyme and taste
Of freedom, on my tongue and in my soul
On the top of that hill where I used to call home
And tell my mom, my pops, and hometown
That maybe I’d come back around

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I’d call off the hounds
Maybe I’d live by the downs
Maybe I’d ask how it sounds
And maybe you’d tell me
That you couldn’t bear to see me go home
Well maybe I never left there at all
Excuse me, I'll try not to bump in
To soft subjects while the bass is pumping
And the me is jumping
And I'm gone let me tell you where

[Chorus]
Why do you think that I’m a stranger, to my own damn friends?
Do they believe I want to break her?
Please, I couldn’t make her bend
Darling see that it’s the truth now
And I do now what I should’ve done then
Do you wanna see it through now, the breakdown
And where it begins?
Come on I’ll walk you through that door

[Verse 2]
Ooh I’ll take what I can get, the smaller I feel, the smaller I sit
And the better for you and your cool confidence
(does it make any sense?)
Does it make any sense that I’m drowning?
Does it make sense that the madness surrounding
All that I see, and all that I do
Is all cause of me, I’ll blame it on you

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Does it ever feel like I’ll make it alright, how?
People be coming up telling me I am doing fine
But I want you old friend to make it right now
People be coming up telling me I will get mine
Talking at breakneck speeds, I need you to take your time

[Chorus]
Why do you think that I’m a stranger, to my own damn friends?
Do they believe I want to break her?
Please, I couldn’t make her bend
Darling see that it’s the truth now
And I do now what I should’ve done then
Do you wanna see it through now, the breakdown
And where it begins?
Come on I’ll walk you through that door
