one night
April Towers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've lost the crowd,
You've lost it all before,
And thinking through,
What's all been done before,

It kills your brain,
Takes over everything,
A word of doubt,
Will ruin your whole day

I like to think,
That you would owe me more,
I'll have a drink,
So I'll be on the floor

Here goes again,
Rewinding to the start,
One night of pain,
Won't get you where you want.

You've lost the will,
You've lost the fight,
You're only
Only gonna get one night

You've lost control,
To their delight
You're only
You're only gonna get one

I look around,
For someone lost and found,
Who takes my hand,
And claims they understand,

To me it's bleak,
The future on repeat,
Of thoughts that you,
Don't ever want to seek,

I like to think,
That you would owe me more,
I'll have a drink,
So I'll be on the floor

Here goes again,
Rewinding to the start,
One night of pain,
Won't get you where you want

You've lost the will,
You've lost the fight,
You're only
Only gonna get one night

You've lost control,
To their delight
You're only
You're only gonna get one

I take a lot of pain for you,
I'll be the sun and rain for you,




I'll take a lot of pain for you,
One night, night.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of April Towers's song "One Night" seem to be about feeling stuck in a cycle of self-doubt and self-sabotage. The singer has lost the crowd before, and they feel like they are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. They are tormented by their own thoughts, and just one word of doubt can ruin their entire day. Despite wanting to break free, they can't seem to escape their own negative patterns.


The lyrics repeat the phrase "one night" several times, which could be interpreted in a few different ways. It could be a reference to the temporary nature of the singer's indulgences, whether that be drinking or something else. It could also be referring to the idea that the singer only has one chance to make a change, and they need to seize it, or they'll be stuck in the same spot forever.


The final verse introduces the idea of seeking solace in someone else, someone who understands the singer's struggles. However, the verse ends on a bleak note, with the singer feeling like they're trapped in a cycle of negative thoughts and actions.


Overall, "One Night" is a song about feeling stuck and powerless, but still searching for a way out. The repeated mentions of "one night" create a sense of urgency, as if the singer knows they only have a limited amount of time to make a change before everything spirals out of control.

I see no positive change in my future


Of thoughts that you, Don't ever want to seek
The negative thoughts are never something you want to dwell on


I take a lot of pain for you, I'll be the sun and rain for you
Expressing a willingness to sacrifice for the ones you care for


One night, night.
Regardless of the outcome, there is only one chance to succeed
