One More Night
We Are Harlot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh my god I can't believe my eyes
It's a quarter past midnight and I'm going blind
I've got a bottle full of whiskey
Filling holes at gun sight
I've got another [?] away from the world
And [?] for a beautiful girl
She's got something that's sinking in
And taking ahold of my mind

'Cause I've got one more night
Today we're getting higher than my mind
I'm alive, and I'm tripped up
No, the devil never lets me go
I'm on a fastrack into hell and now I'm riding, shotgun
I'll live 'til I die with sin in my eye and it's almost time, let's start the show!
Let's start the show!

[?]
I did the women and cocaine and bottles for days
Then I saw her face walking through my door [?]
A [?] is rumbling I can feel it inside
So baby [?] and hold and come along for the ride
And tonight is all we need to [?]

'Cause I've got one more night
Today we're getting higher than my mind
I'm alive, and I'm tripped up
No, the devil never lets me go




I'm on a fastrack into hell and now I'm riding, shotgun
I'll live 'til I die with sin in my eye and it's almost time, let's start the show

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to We Are Harlot's song One More Night describe the singer's reckless, hedonistic lifestyle as he prepares for one more night of excess before it's all over. The song starts with the singer being awed and blinded by the sight of the time, which suggests that he's been engaging in his wild lifestyle for a long time, perhaps even all night. He has a bottle full of whiskey, perhaps his drink of choice, and claims to be filling holes at gun sight, which could either be taken literally or figuratively, perhaps referring to the emotional or physical damage he's caused himself and others in the past.


The chorus is the most impactful part of the song, as the singer declares that he's on a fast track to hell and that he'll live till he dies, leaving a life of sin behind. The devil is mentioned, perhaps as a metaphor for the temptation that the singer can't resist, dragging him back into the life of excess and decadence that he seems to enjoy so much. The last line of the chorus, "let's start the show," implies that all of this is a performance, that the singer is putting on a show for others and himself, living for the moment and not thinking about the consequences.


The second verse starts with a reference to the singer's past, where he indulged in women, cocaine, and alcohol without any care. But then he meets a woman who changes his outlook on life, and he feels a rumbling inside him, a desire to change his ways and leave behind his past mistakes. He invites this woman to join him for one more night of excess, but he also implies that perhaps this time, it's different. The song ends with the chorus, reiterating that this is the singer's last night, but also that he's enjoying every moment of it, and that he's going down in a blaze of glory.

Oh my god I can't believe my eyes
I am in disbelief of what I am witnessing


It's a quarter past midnight and I'm going blind
It's late at night and I'm intoxicated


I've got a bottle full of whiskey
I have a bottle of whiskey


Filling holes at gun sight
Drinking to numb my pain

Drinking for days

A desire for excitement is brewing within me


So baby [?] and hold and come along for the ride
Join me on this wild journey


And tonight is all we need to [?]
Tonight is all we need to have fun
