Lyrics

I saw my baby

I witnessed my loved one in distress

She was turning blue

She appeared to be in a critical condition

I knew that soon, her

I realized her young life was coming to an end

Young life was through

Anticipating her imminent demise

And so I got down on my knees

I knelt beside her bed

Down by her bed

Expressing vulnerability and sorrow

And these are the words

Shared the following words with her

To her I said

Unspecified words spoken for comfort


Everything will be alright tonight

Optimistic reassurance for the upcoming night

Everything will be alright tonight

Reiteration of the hopeful message


No one moves

A scene of stillness and silence

No one talks

No one is moving

No one thinks

No one is talking

No one walks tonight

No one is thinking


Everyone will be alright tonight

Assurance that everyone will be fine tonight

Everyone will be alright tonight

Repetition of the positive outlook


No one moves

Continuation of the quiet scene

No one talks

Stillness in communication persists

No one thinks

No one is engaging in thought

No one walks tonight

No one is venturing out tonight

Tonight

Emphasis on the current night


I am gonna love her till the end

Commitment to love her until the end

I am gonna love her till the end

Reaffirmation of the enduring love

I will love her till I die

Determination to love her until death

I will see her in the sky

Belief in seeing her in the afterlife

Tonight

Repetition of "Tonight" with heightened emotion

Tonight

Continuation of the intense emotion

Tonight

Intensification of emotions regarding the night

Tonight

Repeated emphasis on the significance of the night

Tonight

Final repetition, underscoring the importance of the night


Hi!

Introduction of an external greeting or expression

Thanks

An expression of gratitude

Alright, I have a pretty good job

Shift to personal reflection on employment

It's, it's good to have a job

Positive acknowledgment of having a job

But no matter what job you have

Reflection on the universal experience of unexpected challenges in any job

Do you kind of find after you get it

A realization of unanticipated difficulties after obtaining a job

Oh shit! There are some shit that goes through this that I didn't think of

A mix of factors including games, politics, and challenges

A little game play, a little politics, a little evil

Reference to a combination of elements: gameplay, politics, and negativity

No rest, constant stress

Highlighting the absence of rest and constant stress

That's why I say sometimes

Expressing the difficulty of managing life's pressures
