In The Morning
RAZORLIGHT (www.united-forums.co.uk) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe I've been here too long
The songs on the radio sound the same
Everybody just looks the same
But then last night was so much fun
And now your sheets are dirty
The streets are dirty too but
Remember when you were young
You'd lose yourself
In the morning, you know you won't remember a thing
In the morning, you know it's gonna be alright
Wake him up, warm him up
Put him on the stage, well
The boy can't help it, it's not his fault
Just a dangerous, dangerous age
But then every night's still so much fun
And you're still out there darling
Clinging on to the wrong ideas but
I never regret anything I've done
Remember when you were young
You'd lose yourself
In the morning you know he won't remember a thing
In the morning you know it's gonna be alright
In the morning, you know he won't remember a thing
In the morning, you know it's gonna be all
In the morning, you know he won't remember a thing
In the morning, you know it's gonna be all
In the morning, you know he won't remember a thing
In the morning, you know it's gonna be alright
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you really gonna do it this time?
In the morning, you know you won't remember a thing
In "In The Morning," Razorlight's lead singer is grappling with the feeling of being stuck in a monotonous existence. He's getting older, and he's tired of hearing the same songs on the radio and seeing people conform to societal norms. In the chorus, he reminisces about the wild nights of his youth, where he "lost himself." Although he recognizes that the nights are often fueled by dangerous behavior, he asserts that he never regrets anything he's done.
The reference to sheets and streets being dirty suggests that the night he just had was one of passion and indulgence. However, he recognizes that in the morning, he won't remember what happened as he's done it all before. The repetitiveness of his actions is mirrored in the song's repetition, with the same line being repeated at the end of each verse and the chorus.
The line 'Are you really gonna do it this time?' is repeated over and over in the last verse, almost like a plea to break the cycle and try something new. However, the song ends with the same line from the chorus - in the morning, you know you won't remember a thing - suggesting that the singer is still trapped in this cycle of repetition come morning.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong
I am unsure of my mistakes
Maybe I've been here too long
Perhaps I have stayed for too long
The songs on the radio sound the same
The music on the radio is repetitive
Everybody just looks the same
Everyone appears similar
But then last night was so much fun
However, last night was enjoyable
And now your sheets are dirty
Your sheets are stained from the activities last night
The streets are dirty too but
The streets are also unclean, however,
You never look back over what you've done
You never reflect upon your actions
Remember when you were young
Recall when you were a child
You'd lose yourself
You would become fully immersed
In the morning, you know you won't remember a thing
Come morning, you will not recollect what happened
In the morning, you know it's gonna be alright
In the morning, things will be okay
Wake him up, warm him up
Wake the performer up, get him psyched up
Put him on the stage, well
Place him on the stage with confidence
The boy can't help it, it's not his fault
The boy's behavior cannot be controlled, it is not his fault
Just a dangerous, dangerous age
This is an age with a great deal of peril
But then every night's still so much fun
However, every night is still enjoyable
And you're still out there darling
And you are still engaging in this behavior, my love
Clinging on to the wrong ideas but
Holding on to erroneous beliefs, however
I never regret anything I've done
I have no remorse for my actions
Are you really gonna do it this time?
Are you truly going to follow through with your plans?
In the morning, you know you won't remember a thing
Come morning, there will be no recollection of the events

No sé lo que estoy haciendo mal
Tal vez he estado aquí demasiado tiempo
Las canciones en la radio suenan igual
Todo el mundo solamente se ve igual
Pero entonces anoche fue tan divertido
Y ahora tus sabanas están sucias
Las calles están sucias también pero
Nunca miraste hacia atrás sobre lo que has hecho
Recuerda cuando eras joven
Solías perderte (o "Solías soltarte/ser suelta")
Por la mañana, sabes que no recordaras nada
Por la mañana, sabes que va a estar todo bien
Despertarlo, darle carlo
Ponerlo en el escenario, bueno
el niño no puede evitarlo, no es su culpa
Sólo una cosa peligrosa peligrosa (o "muy peligrosa")
Pero entonces, cada noche sigue siendo tan divertida
Y todavía estás por ahí afuera querida
Aferrándote a las ideas equivocadas, pero
Nunca me arrepiento de nada de lo que he hecho
Recuerda cuando usted eras joven
Solías perderte (o "Solías soltarte/ser suelta")
Por la mañana, sabes que el no recordará nada
Por la mañana, sabes que va a estar todo bien
Por la mañana, sabes que el no recordará nada
Por la mañana, sabes que va a estar todo...
Por la mañana, sabes que el no recordará nada
Por la mañana, sabes que va a estar todo...
Por la mañana, sabes que el no recordará nada
Por la mañana, sabes que va a estar todo bien
Realmente vas a hacerlo esta vez?
Realmente vas a hacerlo esta vez?
Realmente vas a hacerlo esta vez?
Realmente vas a hacerlo esta vez?
X2
Tenes que hacerlo esta vez
Realmente vas a hacerlo esta vez o qué?
Realmente vas a hacerlo esta vez? Yeah!
Realmente vas a hacer qué?
Por la mañana, sabes que el no recordará nada
No, ni una cosa y
Por la mañana, sabes que el no recordará nada

Dude. Same

Very underrated band.
Gary Thomson
Dose of nostalgia from every song from this era
Samuel Powell
this song brings back so many happy memories in high school with my friend, time seemed simpler and the music on the radio were tunes like this with artists that actually played instruments, miss those indie days, I wanna throw one of my friends some love as he's always been there for me, if a music producer now and heavily influenced by our high school indie days, try searching Lonely Gimmick - Grumpy Days, despite the name its a very happy indie track, its honestly such a great tune well worth a listen!
