Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know when you're down, know what you need to get you high
Top down, like the wind through your hair on a summer's night
Outside, all of your fears, leave them behind
Baby I'm speeding and red lights, I'll run
What I got you need it, and I'll run to your side
When your heart is bleeding, I'm coming to get you (to get you, to get you, ooh)
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
Eyes wide, like you've never seen the ocean never seen the tides
No hope, now you're seeing things that you'd lost sight of
Taking off, got your hands in the air and you're feeling alright
Gold vines, glistening on my skin for you
Baby I'm speeding and red lights, I'll run
What I got you need it, and I'll run to your side
When your heart is bleeding, I'm coming to get you
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
Baby take my hand now, don't you cry
I won't let you stay here, I won't let you hide
No more tears, don't waste another day
Go on and fight, don't lay down to die
Come on get up, you'll make it through okay
Come on get up, don't waste another day
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
I know you've had a rough time
Here I've come to hijack you (hijack you), I'll love you while
I'm making the most of the night
Ooh
I'm making the most of the night
Oh
I'm making the most of the night

I heard heavy metal guy from a podcast talking about how this album was complete pop music perfection in a way that most modern radio shite hasn't been in decades and man was he right. By the time I came up to this song I was sold on the album. When a guy who can appreciate good growls and heavy guitar riffs tells you there's this woman who has made an incredible pop album I tend to listen.

Edward Chen
