Go Tonight

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 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 memories, 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 tonight She was She was Everything I'm not, my whole universe When 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 go, we gotta go tonight! (We had miles to go!) You were mad to reach! Mad to drive! Mad! (Mad!) Mad! (Mad!) And so alive The space you left! The empty air! I reach! 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! (Oh!) Over and over! Your words to me echo! Go tonight! (Go tonight!) (Oh!)

(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 memories The loop of the The loop of the The loop of the
