Lyrics
You think it's gonna bite? If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight. Go tonight. Go tonight. If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight. Go tonight. Go-oh tonight. She was — She was — Sitting on the roof of her beat-up car, Half-singing, half-laughing, half-going too far. The music played over, with nothing to come. In a remix of mem'ry, the loop of the — Drum Or bass line… Or was it… If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight. Go tonight. Go tonight. If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight. Go tonight. Go-oh tonight. She was — She was — Everything I'm not. My whole universe. And I was a footnote, a slim second verse. But she was the chorus, The hook and the groove. And without her there pushing Somehow I can't… Move. So I sit in the car that she left behind, Sinking down in this void like a crater. Getting lost in a world that I can't rewind. It's too late and it's just getting later. If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight. Go tonight. Why did I say no? If we're gonna gonna go, we gotta go tonight. We had miles to go. Go — You were Mad to reach, Mad to drive, Mad, mad And so alive. The space you left, The empty air — I reach, reach But you're not there. And time expands, The beat goes on. You were mad, mad And now you're — She was — She was — Oh. Go-oh. Over and over Your words to me echo. Go tonight. Go tonight. Go. Over and over As I try to let go, There's a Black hole, a vacuum, In deep outer space, That swallows all matter Without any trace, Where life is suspended In physics and time, Ev'ry word you said hangs Like an unfinished — Rhyme. So I sit in the vacuum you left behind And I sift through each phrase for an ember — Go — For a spark that will light 'cause I can't rewind. I unravel until I remember: Sitting on the roof of your beat-up car, When I was your orbit and you were my star. But now you're a black hole and I am left numb From the loop of these mem'ries, The loop of the… The loop of the… The loop of the…
