Late partygoer is made to provide own light (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
night owl
'late partygoer' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'made to provide own light' is the wordplay.
'own light' anagrams to 'NIGHT OWL'.
Though, I am not clear how this is indicated.
'is' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for night owl that I've seen before include "One who puts off retirement" , "he may go to bed at last" , "One working late" , "One likes to be active late into the evening" , "One active after dark" .)
