Harry - Lights Up

As you know Harry released LIGHTS UP on October 11th.
October 11th is National Coming Out Day.

So here we have the lyrics:

Comparison

What do you mean?
I'm sorry by the way
[Miss you: Now I'm asking my friends how I should say I'm SORRY
From the dining table: Maybe one day you'll call me and tell me that you're SORRY too
Too Young: I'm SORRY that I hurt you, darling ]

Never coming back down
[We Made It: Never coming down
With your hand in mine]

Can't you see?
I could, but wouldn't stay
Wouldn't put it like that
What do you mean?
I'm sorry by the way
Never coming around
Be so sweet if things just stayed the same
(La-da-da-da-da)

All the lights couldn't put out the dark
Runnin' through my heart
Lights up and they know who you are
Know who you are
Do you know who you are?
[I think Do you know who you are? on National Coming Out Day is very loud]

Shine, step into the light
Shine, so bright sometimes
Shine, I'm not ever going back
Shine, step into the light
Shine, so bright sometimes
Shine, I'm not ever going back
Shine, step into the light
Shine, so bright sometimes
Shine, I'm not ever (oh)

Now my analysis

What do you mean?
I'm sorry by the way
Either Harry wants to say sorry too or 'What do you mean' and 'I'm sorry by the way' belongs together and Harry asks Louis what he really means with his apology.
Never coming back down
Maybe all this shit won't make him feel bad again because he knows that they're free soon.
Can't you see?
Cant we, the fans, all see?
I could, but wouldn't stay
He wouldn't stay in the dark, in the closet.
Wouldn't put it like that
What do you mean?
I'm sorry by the way
Never coming around
They split up for a while and Louis never came around cause he also needed his time or nobody cares how they feel with all this shit and nobody cares whether they can handle all the pain or not.
Be so sweet if things just stayed the same
It'd be nice if things stayed the same as at their start, when they didn't have to hide and no one was against their relationship.
(La-da-da-da-da)

All the lights couldn't put out the dark
All the lights of the fame couldn't make them happy because they're trapped or all the flashlights of the paparazzo couldn't expose all the lies.
Runnin' through my heart
Lights up and they know who you are
It seems that the media knows exactly who you are and everything about you.
Know who you are
But do they really know you or just what you want them to know/believe?
Do you know who you are?
Do you even know who you are?

Shine, step into the light
Step by step. Tell the truth.
Shine, so bright sometimes
Be/become happy
Shine, I'm not ever going back
...in the closet
Shine, step into the light
Shine, so bright sometimes
Shine, I'm not ever going back
Shine, step into the light
Shine, so bright sometimes
Shine, I'm not ever (oh)

What do you mean?
I'm sorry by the way
Never going back now
Be so sweet if things just stayed the same
La-da-da-da-da

La-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da (oh)
La-da-da-da-da (oh)
La-da-da-da-da (oh)

All the lights couldn't put out the dark
Runnin' through my heart
Lights up and they know who you are
Know who you are
Do you know who you are?
