Control Tonight
Sierra León Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

You say you're sorry, just another excuse
so you can run away from here
that is just so sad
life is not as easy as i look in the TV
I life for the beat
why wont you understand thtat?
My life is the beat
And i don't think you can keep up control tonight
I look at the window i feel the breeze in my chest
and i really like the way i look myself
there's no contradictions only just one reason
that keeps awake until the day is up
i've been hearing stories about days of glories
where there's women and yet more to come
so fasten your seat bealt lose your head with
the rythm shouting and screaming all night long
but is just felt so right, i can't remember the first time
I live for the beat
why wont you understand that?
My life is the beat
And i don't think you can keep up control tonight
I would like to say i really look for your friend's sake
i dont remember a thing, but i got this feelings
that keeps calling me on and on
and keeps calling me on and on
and keeps calling me on and on
and keeps calling me on and on
and keeps calling me on and on
cause i don't think that you could remember the first time
cause i don't think that you could remember the first time
cause i don't think that you could remember the first time
cause i don't think that you could remember the first time




because i love this feeling i get lost in the music
I live for the beat

Overall Meaning

In the song "Control Tonight" by Sierra León, the lyrics delve into themes of escapism, self-acceptance, and the all-encompassing power of music and the beat. The singer expresses frustration towards someone who continuously makes excuses and tries to run away from their problems, highlighting the sadness in not confronting reality head-on. The line "life is not as easy as I look in the TV" portrays a sense of disillusionment with the idealized portrayals of life in media and emphasizes the complexity and challenges that come with existence.


The recurring motif of "I live for the beat" signifies the deep connection the singer has with music, emphasizing its importance as a driving force in their life. The plea "why won't you understand that?" showcases a desire for the other person to comprehend the significance of this passion. The refusal to relinquish control tonight suggests a determination to hold onto one's own agency and not be swayed by external pressures or distractions.


The imagery of feeling the breeze and admiring oneself in the window reflects a moment of introspection and self-appreciation amidst the chaos of the night. The mention of stories of past glory days and the allure of wild nights filled with music and excitement paint a picture of nostalgia and longing for uninhibited joy. The invitation to "fasten your seat belt" and lose oneself in the rhythm symbolizes a surrender to the power of music to transport and liberate one's spirit.


The repetition of the phrase "keeps calling me on and on" conveys a sense of being pulled towards a certain feeling or experience, despite not being able to remember the exact moments that led to it. The final lines express a deep love for the euphoria and freedom found in losing oneself in music, encapsulating the idea that the beat serves as a lifeline and source of pure, unadulterated joy. Overall, the lyrics of "Control Tonight" speak to the transformative and cathartic nature of music, highlighting its ability to provide solace and a sense of belonging in a tumultuous world.

You say you’re sorry
Just another excuse so you can run away From here
That is just so sad
Life is not that easy as I look in the T.V.

I live for the beat
Why won’t you understand that?
My life is the beat
And I don’t think you can keep up
Control tonight.

I look at the window
I feel the breeze in my chest
I really like the way I look myself
There’s no contradictions only just one reason
To keep me awake until the day is up

I’ve been hearing these stories
About days of glories where there’s women and yet more to come
So fasten your seat belts lose your head with the rhythm shouting and screaming all night long.
It just felt so right I can’t remember the first time
Yeah!!
I’d like to say
That I really look for your friend’s sake
I don’t remember a thing
But I got this feeling that calls me on and on
And keeps calling me on and on(x4)
‘Cause I don’t think that you could remember the first time(x5)
‘Cause I love this feeling I get lost in the music.
I live for the beat.
