Out All Night
Pietasters Lyrics

I don't need to tell the truth
I don't feel obligated to always be honest

But I never lie
But I don't make untrue statements either

I don't need to bow to you
I don't have to submit to your authority

You're just passing by
I don't consider you a long-term fixture in my life

I never wanted to be the one you bitch and moan and come home to
I never wanted to be the person you complain to and rely on as a constant support

But as long as you look good, I'll talk back to you
But as long as you appear attractive, I'll engage with you in conversation even if I don't care about the topic

Get inside my troubled mind
Understand my complicated thoughts and feelings

With all of your threats
Despite all the negative things you say

Sometimes I think I was blind
Sometimes I regret not seeing clearly earlier

Not before we met
Not at any point prior to our relationship

I never wanted to be the one that you depend on for your life
I never wanted to be the person you rely on for your survival or livelihood

When you cry it smells like soup,
When you weep, it has an aroma similar to soup

Sometimes shown at night, never be the way
It's something that may be disclosed in darkness and not at any other time

[Chorus] Stay out all night, I've got a right each time I
The chorus repeats the phrase 'Stay out all night' to indicate a desire for independence and to make one's own decisions

You're an evil little girl
You are a mischievous and sometimes malicious young lady

I'm a twisted man
I'm a complex and possibly eccentric individual

Tear into your perfect world
Disrupt your idyllic and pristine existence

Make you understand
Help you comprehend the reality of the situation

But as long as you look good
But as long as you seem attractive

I'll talk back to you and you have things to do
I'll engage in conversation with you even if I have other things on my plate

[Chorus]
The chorus reiterates the desire to stay out all night and be independent

I will never treat you bad
I will never deliberately harm or upset you

You deserve the best from me
You are entitled to receive the best I have to offer

If you want to keep you place
If you want to maintain your current standing in my life

You'd better get down on you knees
You should show me reverence and deference
