The Night
The Perishers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I guess you feel hurt, well I'm feeling hurt too
Feel free to blame me, if you don't already do
But I want you to know that I'd change if I could
I wanna make sure that that's well understood

The night, a journey through dark towards light
Despite your glowing eyes this is night
And all is calm, we're safe, we're warm
The night

I guess you feel lost well I'm feeling lost too
Feel free to hate me if you don't already do
But I want you to know that I've always been true
If you promise to help me then I will help you through

The night, this journey through dark towards light
Despite your glowing eyes this is night
All is calm, all is calm

The night
Let's make sure that we'll do what's right
The night
This journey through black towards white




And all is calm, we're safe, we're warm
The night

on Trouble Sleeping

I’m having trouble sleeping
不眠症な僕の
You’re jumping in my bed
ベットの上で君はジャンプして
Twisting in my head
頭の中をねじるんだ。
Leave me
そっとしておくれ。

I’m having trouble breathing
呼吸困難な僕の
You’re sitting on my chest
胸の上で君は座って
I sure could use the rest
確かに安息できたんだ。
Leave me
そっとしておくれ。

It’s you
君さ
Why’s it always you
何故いつも君なんだ
and never me?
何故僕じゃなく。
I’ve never dared to let
僕には勇気がなかった
my feelings free
心を解き放つ
Why’s it always you
何故いつも君なんだ
and never me?
何故僕じゃなく
I’ve never cared
構ってあげられない僕の
too much about honesty
あまりにも素直な気持ち。

I’m having trouble sleeping
不眠症な僕の
I’m thinking of what you said
君の言った事を考えて
About the tears been shed
流れた涙のわけも
Leave me
離れて行く

It’s you
それは君
Now and always you
ずっと君なんだ
but never me
決して僕じゃなく
I’ve never dared to
僕には勇気がなかった
let my feelings free
感情を解き放つ
Why’s it always you
何故いつも君なんだ
and never me?
何故僕じゃなく
I’ve never cared
構ってあげられなかった僕の
too much about honesty
あまりにも素直な気持ちさ。
