Lyrics
Alright you win again, we're friends,
Feeling defeated, acknowledging the other person's victory, and maintaining friendship despite the situation.
I'll sit back and watch this end.
Accepting the impending conclusion and choosing to observe the outcome passively.
How could you, said you never
Expressing disbelief at the other person's actions, as they had promised not to break their word.
Would go back on your word. Alright, again, you win again.
Reiterating the acknowledgment of defeat and the friend's betrayal of their promise.
You laid me down, down to rest,
Describing a moment of vulnerability and emotional burden, with the metaphor of bricks on the chest.
Stacking bricks upon my chest.
Symbolizing the weight of emotional pain through the image of stacking bricks on the chest.
I felt my will slowly leave,
Experiencing a gradual loss of willpower, possibly due to emotional exhaustion.
With each breath, harder to breathe.
Highlighting the increasing difficulty to cope with the situation, making each breath more challenging.
These racks of clothes
Reflecting on material possessions (racks of clothes) as a metaphor for the relationship losing its luster and vitality.
Never looked so used up and old,
Emphasizing the worn-out and aged appearance of the clothes, paralleling the state of the relationship.
They never looked so used up and old.
Repeating the idea that the clothes symbolize the deteriorating state of the relationship.
Alright you win again, we're friends,
Repeating the sentiment of conceding defeat, acknowledging the other person's victory, and maintaining the friendship despite the situation.
I'll sit back and watch this end.
Reiterating the acceptance of the impending end and the decision to observe passively.
How could you, said you never
Expressing surprise and disappointment at the other person going back on their word.
Would go back on your word. Alright, again, you win again.
Restating the acknowledgment of defeat and the friend's betrayal of their promise.
Alright, you win again.
Repeating the acknowledgment of the other person's victory in a resigned manner.
Let's sing the sleepy night-night song,
Introducing a shift in tone, suggesting a change in the narrative with the sleepy night-night song.
Everybody
Indicating a collective participation in singing the sleepy night-night song.
Go to sleep, close your eyes,
Encouraging the act of going to sleep and closing one's eyes, possibly as a metaphor for acceptance or closure.
It's a sleepy night-night time.
Repeating the theme of a sleepy night, reinforcing the idea of rest and tranquility.
Go to sleep now, close your eyes
Reiterating the suggestion to go to sleep and close one's eyes, emphasizing the sleepy night atmosphere.
It's a sleepedy night-night-night!
Playfully elongating the term "sleepy night-night," possibly as a whimsical or ironic conclusion.
