After Dark
Journey through Chaos: Ryan Montbleau's After Dark
Lyrics
I cut the tape
The speaker metaphorically describes cutting something significant.
I was running round with scissors
Engaging in risky behavior or actions without caution.
Too late for a good friend
When in need, the speaker realizes that their friend wasn't available.
To find me on her own then
Being alone without assistance or support from a friend.
I cut my hand
The speaker experiences harm or injury due to not paying attention.
When I didn’t pay attention
Being careless leads to personal injury.
I lost the wheel and it only took a second
A mistake occurred very quickly, resulting in loss of control.
I want to know where all my blood got drained to
Desire to understand where one's vitality or essence has gone.
Want you to show me that it’s not so painful
Asking for reassurance that experiences won't be excessively painful.
I want to run around, not in straight lines
Yearning for spontaneity and freedom, not following a set path.
I want to play my hand and I think about it all the time
Thinking constantly about taking risks or making decisions.
Off to the races
Beginning a journey or pursuit with intensity.
Off to the
Continuation or repetition of heading off somewhere.
Seas of faces
Encountering many different people or situations.
Oceans and the rivers of light
Surrounded by abundant sources of illumination or positivity.
Scores of places
Availability of numerous options or destinations.
We can get together tonight
Suggesting the possibility of meeting up or connecting.
I gotta to face it
Confronting reality or accepting a situation.
Heaven’s how I feel
Feeling euphoric or incredibly positive.
I want to throw my muscle to the wheel and
Willingness to put in effort or work hard.
I want to know how to get back home
Seeking guidance or direction back to a familiar place.
I don’t believe that I'm so far gone
Doubting that one has strayed too far from a recoverable state.
I want to show you to this heart of mine
Wishing to reveal deep emotions to someone.
I want to hold your hand and I think about it all the time
Constantly thinking about physical closeness or connection.
Off to the races
Repeating the idea of beginning a rapid journey or activity.
Off to the
Continuation or repetition of heading off somewhere.
Off to the races
Repeating the idea of beginning a rapid journey or activity.
Off to the
Continuation or repetition of heading off somewhere.
Cut to the chase
Desire to get to the main point or resolution quickly.
I don't want to get to heaven tonight
Not wanting to postpone joy or fulfillment to the afterlife.
I don’t believe that we're ever far away
Believing that closeness or connection is always possible.
I lose control when I look in your direction
Losing self-control or composure when focusing on someone.
Stop, drop and roll and it only takes a second
Reacting quickly and instinctively when faced with something.
I want to know where all my brains get sent to
Questioning where one's intelligence or rationality goes.
Want you to help me when my heart goes mental
Asking for help during emotionally turbulent times.
I want the thunder with a twist of lime
Desiring an electrifying experience with a hint of refreshment.
I want to you to take this dance
Inviting someone to share an experience or moment.
And I think about it all the time
Constantly thinking about sharing a dance or experience.
Off to the races
Repeating the idea of beginning a rapid journey or activity.
