They've released two EPs, a handful of singles and covers, and set out on tour to get their road legs under them as live performers. Archetypes Collide eventually captured the attention of Beartooth's Oshie Bichar, who began working with the band in the studio and helping to shape their sound. Very quickly thereafter, Archetypes Collide began to enjoy extensive support on SiriusXM’s Octane channel, with airplay of several singles: "Your Misery," "Becoming What I Hate," and "Above It All." Bichar was then approached by accomplished veteran manager Thomas Gutches (Beartooth), about forming a representation team - and in early 2022, Fearless Records signed the band to a worldwide record deal. A tour with The Amity Affliction and soon followed, and the band also secured placement on the major Danny Wimmer Presents festival, Welcome to Rockville. Archetypes Collide's debut album for Fearless will arrive this summer, and not a moment too soon! The band released the new single "Undertow" ahead of the release to offer a taste of what's to come!

One More Night
Archetypes Collide Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

(No I can't live like that) (No I can't live like that)

Oh-ah-oh
Oh-oo-oh
Oh-ah-oh
Oh-oo-oh

There's a fine line Between the things I love

And hate in my mind, my mind It takes a lifetime
To redefine these habits that I don't like, don't like, don't like

I can't be complacent, no
(No I can't live like that)
(No I can't live like that)

And I don't want to regret this, ohh
(No I can't live like that)
(No I can't live like that)

If I could say, whats on my mind
If I could fall, and never look behind
If I could shake, these fears inside
Would you stay by my side, for one more night

Loves like
A fire I hold close it keeps me warm through, the night
But sometimes
You get to close and then it turns and your scarred, with burns

I can't be complacent, no
(No I can't live like that)
(No I can't live like that)

And I don't wanna regret this, ohh
(No I can't live like that)
(No I can't live like that)

If I could say, whats on my mind
If I could fall, and never look behind
If I could shake, these fears inside
Would you stay by my side

If I could leave, things in the past
If I could love, without holding back
If I could live like today is all I have
Would you stay by my side, for one more night

(Oh-ah-oh)
(Oh-oo-oh)
I can't be complacent, no
(No I can't live like that)
(No I can't live like that)
And I don't wanna regret this, ohh
(No I can't live like that)
For one more night

If I could say, whats on my mind
If i could fall, and never look behind
If I could shake, these fears inside
Would you stay by my side

If I could leave, things in the past
If I could love, without holding back
If I could live like today is all I have
Would you stay by my side, for one more night

Oh-ah-oh
Oh-oo-oh
Oh-ah-oh
Oh-oo-oh

For one more night

Overall Meaning

The song "One More Night" by Archetypes Collide talks about the struggle between love and hate, fear and courage, and the constant battle within oneself to push forward and pursue the things they truly desire. The lyrics reflect the persona's realization that sometimes, they can't be complacent and settle for less than what they truly deserve. They want to speak their mind, let go of past pain and fear, and live in the present without holding back. They question if their loved one would stay by their side for one more night if they were to make these changes.

The first verse talks about the fine line between the things one loves and hates in their mind. The persona is asking for a chance to redefine their habits and overcome their fears but realizes that it takes a lifetime to do so. They don't want to be complacent and live with the status quo, but they also don't want to regret making changes that could harm their relationship. The second verse compares love to a fire that can keep one warm, but when they get too close, they can get burned. The persona wonders if their loved one would stay with them if they were to make changes, leave the past behind, and love without holding back.

Overall, "One More Night" is a powerful song that touches on themes of self-discovery, fear, and love, and the constant battle within oneself to pursue what truly matters.

I wondered how this song would stack up to "Your Misery" (which was one of the top most played songs on my spotify from 2021). This song is such an ear worm and I have found myself randomly playing it in my head at work at random intervals. Y'all are killing it and I cannot wait to drop the money to take myself and friends to a show of yours. Keep killing it.

@ArchetypesCollide

Thank you! Were going to be touring the US in 2022, hopefully you can make it to one of our shows! Archetypescollide.com

Song writing is really tight. Your drummer is on point. However I think the Guitars need a little bit more aggro (not a dig on their skill, more of a producer thing) Otherwise this is a slamming track.
