Vices
Embracing Our Vices: A Night of Wild Freedom with Julius Marx
Lyrics
It's a Friday night and we're out to be free, yeah
Expressing the desire for freedom on a Friday night.
We've been stranded in a dream, lost in memory a while, mhm
Reflecting on being lost in a dream and memories for a while.
I don't really know what we want to be, yeah
Uncertain about defining what they want to be.
We've been racing through the week, to dance here in the sea of lights
Busy with the hustle of the week, aiming to dance amidst a sea of lights.
Oh but the night is young and it's just us two
Acknowledging the youthfulness of the night with only the two of them.
And time is ours to be wild and blue
Embracing the freedom of time to be wild and carefree.
We don't yet know, but we think we do
Admitting uncertainty about their future but believing they know.
I've been dreaming of LA with you
Dreaming of being in Los Angeles together.
But I know when the lights hit, you'll be on my mind
Aware that thoughts of the person will linger when the lights come on.
I look in your eyes then you look back in mine
Sharing a mutual gaze, deepening their connection.
You know all my vices, somewhere deep inside
Acknowledging familiarity with each other's flaws or weaknesses (vices).
Oh we all got our vices, you and I
Recognizing that everyone has their own vices, including themselves.
I've been on the road and without you a day, now
Expressing the impact of being without the person for a day while traveling.
And a night is all we get, a summer sun set and then, mhm
Highlighting the brevity of the time they have together – a night or a summer sunset.
We could spend a while driving down the bay route
Considering spending time driving down a scenic route together.
Then it's like we never left and we get back in bed again
Reveling in the idea that being together erases the feeling of absence.
Oh but the nights are long when I'm not with you
Expressing the loneliness experienced when apart.
And time is running away in June
Feeling the pressure of time passing, particularly in June.
We could just dance, in this night in bloom
Suggesting the idea of dancing in the blossoming night.
But I know that you feel it too
Acknowledging the shared emotional connection.
'Cause I know when the lights hit, I'll be on your mind
Anticipating that the person will think of them when the lights come on.
I look in your eyes and you look back in mine
Reciprocal eye contact deepening the emotional bond.
You know all my vices, somewhere deep inside
Recognizing each other's vulnerabilities or flaws (vices).
Oh we all got our vices, you and I
Reiterating that everyone possesses their own vices.
Oh we all got our vices
Repeating the acknowledgment that everyone has vices.
Oh we all got our vices
Emphasizing again that vices are universal.
Oh we all got our vices
Reiterating the universality of vices.
Oh we all got our vices
Stressing once more that vices are part of everyone's life.
Oh we all got our vices
Repeating the notion that everyone possesses vices.
Oh we all got our vices, you and I
Affirming that both individuals share vices.
Vices, you and I
Concluding with the repetition of the theme, emphasizing shared vices between them.
