Tonight Tonight
Mondo Cozmo Lyrics

All I am is all I need
I don't need any materialistic possessions or anyone else to define me or make me happy.

And these city boy blues and these "Suicide Queens"
Despite my self-sufficiency, I'm still drawn to the gritty and dangerous aspects of city life.

And I said what I said 'cause I love you so much
I spoke my mind because I care about you deeply and want to be honest.

Now I'm pulling these wires on this cross city bus
I'm living my life on the move, traveling cross-city and doing what I need to do to find my place in the world.

'Cause Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight Yeah tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight All I want is what I can't take tonight But tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, I just want something I know I can't have, but I'm still going to try and take it anyway. I'm feeling restless and want to live for today.

All I am is all I know
I'm not trying to be something I'm not. I'm simply being true to myself and embracing what I know.

And it's drugstore love for these drugstore girls
I recognize that love isn't always perfect, and sometimes it can be messy and fleeting, like a relationships born out of convenience and circumstance.

And I just wanna feel what can never be sold
I don't crave material possessions, but instead want to experience deeper, intangible emotions that can never be bought or sold.

And I don't wanna die in a nuclear war
I'm afraid of dying pointlessly in a war I have no control over, and instead want to live passionately and on my own terms.

Kiss me on the lips like a cigarette Pressed between your thumb and your innocence
I want to experience love with the same passion and intensity as a smoker holding a cigarette, combined with the naivete and purity of a lover's touch.

Hold me to the light like a silhouette And hide me in the shadows of past regrets
I want to be embraced and celebrated for who I am, while also hiding from the shame and scars of my past mistakes.

Yes tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight There's no magic for you, there's no time machine For these city boy blues and these suicide queens
Tonight, I'm acknowledging that life doesn't have any fairy tale endings, nor can I go back in time and change the past. I have to accept and make peace with the pain of my experiences.

Every man is a fire inside But tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Every person has a spark of passion and purpose inside of them, but tonight is my night to let my own flame shine bright.

And the magic fire is a magical fire But tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Passion and purpose, while magical, can also be painful and unpredictable. Despite this, tonight is a night to embrace the fire and live boldly.
