In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I'm gonna marry the night
I won’t give up on my life
I'm a warrior queen
Live passionately tonight
I'm gonna marry the dark
Gonna make love to the stark
I'm a soldier to my own emptiness
I'm a winner i'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm not gonna cry anymore
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothing on these streets to explore
Ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Oh, ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
I'm gonna lace up my boots
Throw on some leather and cruise
Down the streets that I love
In my fishnet gloves, i'm a sinner
Then I'll go down to the bar
But I won't cry anymore
I'll hold my whiskey up high
Kiss the bartender twice, i'm a loser
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm not gonna cry anymore
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothing on these streets to explore
Ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Oh, ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Nothing's too cool to take me from you
New York is not just a
Tan that you never lose
Love is the new denim or black
Skeleton guns are wedding bells in the attic
Get Ginger ready, climb to El Camino front
Won't poke holes in the seat with my heels
'Cause that's where we make love
Come on and run turn the car on and run
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna burn a hole in the road
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothing on these streets to explore
Ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Oh, ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
The night, the night, the night
The night, the night, the night
The night, the night, the night
I won’t give up on my life
I'm a warrior queen
Live passionately tonight
I'm gonna marry the dark
Gonna make love to the stark
I'm a soldier to my own emptiness
I'm a winner i'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm not gonna cry anymore
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothing on these streets to explore
Ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Oh, ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
I'm gonna lace up my boots
Throw on some leather and cruise
Down the streets that I love
In my fishnet gloves, i'm a sinner
Then I'll go down to the bar
But I won't cry anymore
I'll hold my whiskey up high
Kiss the bartender twice, i'm a loser
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm not gonna cry anymore
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothing on these streets to explore
Ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Oh, ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Nothing's too cool to take me from you
New York is not just a
Tan that you never lose
Love is the new denim or black
Skeleton guns are wedding bells in the attic
Get Ginger ready, climb to El Camino front
Won't poke holes in the seat with my heels
'Cause that's where we make love
Come on and run turn the car on and run
I'm gonna marry the night
I'm gonna burn a hole in the road
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothing on these streets to explore
Ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
Oh, ma ma ma marry, ma ma ma marry
Ma ma ma marry the night
The night, the night, the night
The night, the night, the night
The night, the night, the night
