Going Down Tonight
Sinking Ships and Spinning Rooms: Going Down Tonight's Wild Ride
Lyrics
High tide, no time
Feeling a sense of urgency or pressure, possibly due to a critical situation.
My ship's sinking and I don't know why
Experiencing a downfall or failure without understanding the reason behind it.
Too far, last call
Too late, reaching the end of a situation or opportunity.
They caught me praying in the bathroom stall
Caught engaging in a private or vulnerable moment, possibly seeking solace or guidance.
Low lights,high ceiling
Dim lighting and high space, describing a particular atmosphere or mood.
There's a certain pain that I like feeling
Enjoying a specific type of pain, possibly emotional, that holds a peculiar attraction.
Little girls, older women
Indifferent to age differences when in a state of intoxication or disorientation.
It doesn't matter when the room is spinning
Disregarding age or other factors when caught in a dizzying or chaotic situation.
We go live like a loaded gun
Living recklessly, akin to a dangerous and unpredictable weapon.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Expressing excitement or intensity with a repeated affirmation.
We go live like the settin sun
Living with intensity and passion, akin to the setting sun.
We're going down tonight
Anticipating a decline or negative outcome tonight.
We're going down tonight
Reiterating the expectation of a decline or negative event happening tonight.
South side, too fine
Describing something as exceptionally good or appealing on the south side.
I don't need a glass to drink my wine
Not needing a traditional vessel to enjoy something as refined as wine.
Sunrise, sun sets
Noticing the passing of time, indifferent to the ticking clock.
The meter's running but I couldn't care less
Being aware of the running meter, but unconcerned about the cost or consequences.
Loose change, loose ladies
Having small amounts of money and easygoing relationships.
Twenty dollars make a no go maybe
A modest sum making decisions uncertain or difficult.
Took a fall prison walls
Facing consequences and barriers, possibly due to a mistake or misjudgment.
This fuckin' place has the wrong kind of bars
Expressing discontent with the environment or situation, particularly its restrictions.
We go live like a loaded gun
Living with the intensity and unpredictability of a loaded gun.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Expressing excitement or intensity with a repeated affirmation.
We go live like the settin sun
Living with intensity and passion, akin to the setting sun.
We're going down tonight
Anticipating a decline or negative outcome tonight.
We're going down tonight...
Reiterating the expectation of a decline or negative event happening tonight.
