A lost bat might get trapped in a dark room. While they wouldn't be bothered too much by the dark ( like everyone else, they need at least a bit of light to see using their eyes ), they could use echo sounding to figure out the room fairly well. But they still would be unable to open the door or window to escape, so still trapped or "lost".
My attempt at an interpretation. ๐
My interpretation was "we're not idiots, we know how a light switch works", idiots being lost bats (for some reason)
