All American Rejects – It Ends Tonight

I am a big fan of lyrics. For me there are two categories for music that I like: A) Music I like and B) Music that I really like. For me to ‘really like’ a song the lyrics have to have meaning to them. The beat is secondary.

I thought I’d post some of the lyrics to songs I’ve been listening to lately and that I think really say something. I’m happy to post other lyrics if anyone fancies submitting some.

The lyrics to this song really speak to me at the moment

The All American Rejects
It Ends Tonight

Your subtleties. They strangle me
I can’t explain myself at all.
And all the wants. And all the needs
All I don’t want to need at all.

The walls start breathing. My minds unweaving
Maybe it’s best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted. On this evening
I give the final blow.

When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.

A falling star. Least I fall alone.
I can’t explain what you can’t explain.
You’re finding things that you didn’t know
I look at you with such disdain

The walls start breathing. My minds unweaving
Maybe it’s best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted. On this evening
I give the final blow.

[Chorus]
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won’t make this right
It’s too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.

Now I’m on my own side
It’s better than being on your side
It’s my fault when you’re blind
It’s better that I see it through your eyes

All these thoughts locked inside
Now you’re the first to know

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won’t make this right
It’s too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends when darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won’t make this right
It’s too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Tonight,
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight.
