Goodnight
Dry Kill Logic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And now that I
Face the world with pain inside
Strange but I
Can't understand the reasons why
Forever is a word that I cannot describe
And then the time we say goodnight

It makes no difference wrong or right
The time has come to say goodnight

And how could I
Be so sure but be so wrong
And how could I
Have will so weak with a mind so strong
And only I
Can tell the difference right or wrong

It makes no difference wrong or right
The time has come to say goodnight




It makes no difference wrong or right
I guess it's best we say goodnight

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dry Kill Logic's song "Goodnight" express a sense of confusion, pain, and resignation. The singer is facing the world with an internal pain that they cannot fully comprehend. They cannot understand the reasons behind this pain and cannot describe forever – perhaps because they cannot see past their current struggles. The phrase "And then the time we say goodnight" could be interpreted as a metaphor for the end of life or the end of a relationship. Whatever the case may be, the singer acknowledges that the time has come to say goodbye. The phrase "It makes no difference wrong or right" suggests that the decision to say goodbye is not based on whether something is right or wrong, but rather, it is simply necessary.


The second verse adds further depth to the singer's confusion and weakness. They question how they could be so sure yet be so wrong, and express their frustration with their weak will despite their mind being strong. The singer acknowledges that only they can tell the difference between right and wrong, but cannot seem to act accordingly. The repetition of "It makes no difference wrong or right" reinforces the idea that it is time to say goodbye regardless of the circumstances. The song ends with the resignation that saying goodbye is for the best.


Overall, the lyrics to "Goodnight" paint a picture of internal struggle and confusion. The singer is grappling with pain and uncertainty but ultimately recognizes the need to let go.


Line by Line Meaning

And now that I
At this moment, as I am contemplating my current situation,


Face the world with pain inside
I am forced to deal with the world, carrying a burden of emotional hurt within me,


Strange but I
Although it seems unusual,


Can't understand the reasons why
I cannot comprehend the cause of my struggles,


Forever is a word that I cannot describe
The concept of eternity or permanence is beyond my ability to express,


And then the time we say goodnight
As we bid farewell at the end of our interaction,


It makes no difference wrong or right
Regardless of the circumstances or morality of the situation,


The time has come to say goodnight
It is now necessary to part ways,


And how could I
How is it possible for me,


Be so sure but be so wrong
To have absolute confidence in my beliefs or actions, yet still be mistaken,


And how could I
How is it possible for me,


Have will so weak with a mind so strong
To possess a strong intellect, but lack the determination or willpower to act accordingly,


And only I
I alone am responsible,


Can tell the difference right or wrong
For distinguishing between what is morally acceptable and what is not,


I guess it's best we say goodnight
Perhaps it is most beneficial for us to end our association and move forward separately.

Now that I
Face the world with pain inside
Strange but I
Can't understand the reasons why.
Forever is
A world that I cannot describe
That Died the time we said goodnight.
It makes no difference, wrong or right
The time has come to say goodnight.
And how could I
Be so sure but be so wrong?
And how could I?
Have a will so weak with a mind so strong?
And Only I
Can tell the difference right or wrong.
It makes no difference, wrong or right
I guess it's best we say goodnight.

I’ll never forget the years I listened to this song on repeat. I was so lost. I lost my brother, I tried to commit suicide. I was on cocaine constantly and alcohol. I had no cares for myself or this strange existence. I lived under a dark cloud in an abusive relationship and on the road to utter self destruction. I gave my life to Jesus Christ and I have still had my ups and downs but I cope better with Him than all those destructive things. I pray it gets better for anyone reading this. My life has been lots of suffering and pain but now God is my hope even in my most darkest hours. Love and peace to you all.
