Lyrics
Don't go out too far on your own at night

You never know what kind of people you could find
Highlighting the unpredictability of people one might encounter when alone at night.
Don't go a-crossing roads that you've never been down

Stay where the lights are bright and the music is loud
Suggestion to stay in well-lit and lively places for safety.
Ooh, I'm getting lost tonight
Expressing the speaker's willingness to get lost tonight.
And I don't really mind if it takes you ages
Indifference to the duration it takes to get lost, emphasizing the enjoyment of the process.
Ooh, you can waste all your time
Encouragement to spend time without worry or hurry.
Tryna find which line the train that I am facing is
Referencing the challenge of identifying the correct train line, metaphorically symbolizing life's direction.

Say what you want you can't convince me to cry
Asserting emotional resilience and resistance to being persuaded to cry.
Stand with my back tall, and my head held high
Maintaining a confident posture despite challenges.
Be ready to run for my life at any moment
Readiness to escape or face challenges whenever necessary.
There is always a door to jump for that's closing
Emphasizing the availability of opportunities even when faced with closing doors.
