Collington Releases 'Waiting For Daylight (Arret)', A Pop-Rock Cry For Clarity In The Middle of The Pause
Alt-rock artist Collington returns with his latest single, "Waiting for Daylight (ARRET)," available now on all major streaming platforms. The new track captures the tension of being caught in a forced pause–where doubt feels heavy, and clarity remains just out of reach.
Built on a pop-forward rock foundation with a reflective core, "Waiting for Daylight (ARRET)" lives in the in-between. It's the honest space of wrestling through frustration while holding onto hope. With melodic energy reminiscent of Switchfoot, the song balances urgency and vulnerability without overcomplicating its message.
"Darkness falls once again / And I will try to pretend / That it's day out / But I know I'm wrong."
From the opening verse, Collington sets the emotional tone–acknowledging the temptation to fake strength while admitting the deeper struggle beneath the surface. The pre-chorus becomes a simple but powerful plea: "Say won't you find me / Light that blinds me."
The chorus anchors the song's heartbeat:
"Waiting for daylight
The moment when you find me
I won't close my eyes
Won't you find me."
There's motion in the bridge - "See round and round I go"–but also resolve. Even in the spiral, the cry remains steady: "Come find me / Won't you find me."
"Waiting for Daylight (ARRET)" doesn't rush to resolve the tension. Instead, it leans into it–honest about the darkness, expectant for the light.
