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!)
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
Every 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 memories
The loop of the
The loop of the
The loop of the
