End of the Night
Alone Amidst Chances
Lyrics
Something inside me when I said I'm fine
Sensing an internal struggle or conflict when claiming to be okay.
I'll hold my tongue and swallow my pride
Choosing not to speak out and suppressing one's pride.
Keep taking chances, but it don't seem right
Continuing to take risks, but feeling that something is not right.
Because I'm still alone at the end of the night
Expressing loneliness despite efforts, emphasizing solitude at night.
Because I'm still alone at the end of the night
Reiterating the feeling of being alone at the end of the night.
You say let's spend the night out
Suggesting spending the night out, portraying a facade of being okay.
Like we're just alright now
Conveying a sense of being just alright in the current situation.
Yeah baby lets just hang out
Encouraging casual hanging out, masking underlying emotions.
You can hide the new guy and I'll talk to your friends while
Acknowledging the presence of a new person, willing to engage with friends.
I can't stop looking at you, oh what can he give you that I can't
Expressing a struggle with comparing oneself to the new person in the picture.
But we never moved much farther
Not progressing beyond a superficial encounter with the other person.
Than a casual encounter
Describing the relationship as limited to a casual and fleeting interaction.
Whatever do you mean to me, Cindy
Puzzled about the significance or meaning of the person named Cindy.
Something inside me when I said I'm fine
Reiteration of inner turmoil despite claiming to be fine.
I'll hold my tongue and swallow my pride
Continuing to withhold feelings and pride.
Keep taking chances, but it don't seem right
Persisting in taking risks, yet feeling a sense of discomfort.
Because I'm still alone at the end of the night
Emphasizing persistent loneliness as the night concludes.
Because I'm still alone at the end of the night
Reiterating the enduring solitude at the end of the night.
You talk like you've been around
Commenting on the other person's apparent experience and wisdom.
I think that I know better now
Reflecting on personal growth and understanding.
Yeah babe you talk a big game
Observing the other person's confident talk without clear intentions.
For someone who doesn't even know what she's playing at
Questioning the sincerity or purpose behind the other person's actions.
I can't keep telling myself, that you owe me something I can't keep
Realizing the futility of expecting something from the other person.
Oh we never moved much further
Stagnation in the relationship, limited to casual encounters.
Than a casual encounter
Reiteration of the relationship's lack of progress beyond casual encounters.
Whatever do you mean to me, Cindy
Persisting confusion about the significance of Cindy in the speaker's life.
Something inside me when I said I'm fine
Recurring inner conflict despite claims of being fine.
I'll hold my tongue and swallow my pride
Continued suppression of feelings and pride.
Keep taking chances, but it don't seem right
Perseverance in taking risks despite a sense of unease.
Because I'm still alone at the end of the night
Reiterating the enduring sense of loneliness as the night concludes.
Because I'm still alone at the end of the night
Emphasizing the persistent solitude at the end of the night.
