 * Heaven At Nite - Kid Cudi**

Have you ever been to heaven at night, night Have you ever been to heaven at night

Heaven at night Have you ever been to heaven at night __//Closing your eyes the feeling so right//__ At first you might see this one bright beam of light Clutching your soul __//Happy unites and feelings take flight Blinds of the evils you give them no sight Focus on floating, your focus is tight//__ Like you be road ass you safe for a class To pass in the night __//Have you ever seen the ending so nice You feel so free like your high as a kite//__ Like how you feel if you drink some bud light Followed by Jag Models we smile then tilt our heads back __//These are a few of the visions I like//__ Mixed in with light, //__These are my favorites to dream in the night__// This is my heaven at night

Have you, ever been to heaven at night (heaven at night) Heaven at night (heaven at night) Oh have you Ever been to heaven at night (heaven at night) Heaven at night (heaven at night)

Man Oh, I need what the world can't give me (cant give me) Can't give me Man Oh, I see what the world can't show me (cant show me) Can't show me Dog, Oh, I like what the world can't give me (cant give me) Can't give me Dog Oh, I sing but the world can't hear me (cant hear me) Can't hear me

Heaven at Nite is a perfect example of languid. The lyrics and overall attitude of the song give the feeling of being in a relaxed and lazy state of mind; the feeling as if nothing else in the world matters if you just close your eyes. Slow and smooth electric beats play under the voice of Kid Cudi singing cleverly written lyrics such as "blinds of the evils, you give them no sight" and "have you ever seen an ending so nice", giving the listener a break from reality. A direct reference to drugs is also sung, suggesting that they help to let him see his dreams and the different things he wants out of life.

But you don't specify - why does this word choice equal a languid tone? What are the connotations of specific words?
