Lyrics

I'm going out tonight,

Expressing the intention to go out for the night.

Got an ache in my guts and an my stomachs alight,

Feeling a physical discomfort or pain in the stomach.

So crack your fucking knuckles and straighten your spine,

Encouraging physical readiness and toughness.

We are the night

Embracing the identity of being part of the night scene.


I'm going out tonight,

Repeating the intention to go out, emphasizing a burning sensation in the blood.

Got a burning in my blood that just ain't right,

Describing an intense, abnormal feeling in the blood.

So I'll tear my fucking muscles while I watch the time,

Expressing a willingness to endure physical strain while being aware of time passing.

We are the night

Reiterating the identity of being part of the night.


I'm lying with my back to the floor,

Describing a vulnerable and painful physical state, lying on the floor.

I ain't ever been in so much pain before,

Expressing the severity of pain experienced for the first time.

If I said I wasn't scared I'd be a fucking liar,

Acknowledging fear and emphasizing honesty.

My body's burning like it's on fire

Portraying the intensity of physical distress, comparing it to being on fire.


Sweating like I ain't before,

Describing profuse sweating, indicating a worsening condition.

First it was a cold, now it's a fever for sure,

Noting a progression from a cold to a confirmed fever.

Forget singing I can barely speak,

Expressing difficulty in speaking or singing due to physical discomfort.

I think I'm fucking dying, I can't breathe

Believing to be on the brink of death, struggling to breathe.


And I want to be,

Expressing a desire to be someone else, escaping from the current self.

Anyone in the world but me

Feeling trapped and defeated in one's own body.

Trapped in the body of a man defeated,

Acknowledging shame from repeating mistakes.

I am the shame of mistakes repeated

Declaring an end to ambiguity, implying a decisive change.


There will be no more gray,

Emphasizing a definitive stance, no more uncertainty.

We have finished digging the grave,

Indicating completion of a negative situation, using the metaphor of digging a grave.

We are the new black,

Associating with the color black, possibly signifying a new identity or outlook.

And we're as serious as a heart attack.

Stressing seriousness, comparing the situation to a heart attack.
