This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Too late tonight, I'm gone and your miles ahead and I'm lost.
Throughout this darkened scene, dark skies invade my dreams.
The light resides in lines, offser in different times.
And I'm blinded by a sea of this strange memory.
Frames change and I'm still lost.
Scene stills lay still in this fog, ans I try only to see straight into through you.
Your eyes become so bare, an eager empty stare.
And I'm blinded by a sea of this strange memory.
And I am...and I see.. it's just me.
And I drift quietly through the thick of trees leaves.
My mind slowly separates from my body.
Days late and I'm not around now.. I don't care.
Dreamscapes escape all my thoughts. Awake.
I dream of a fate I cannot escape, now it's too late.
Time dies in straight lines. Waiting, and I can't take anything,
You try to believe everything, but I can't.
Follow me again, out from everything.
The dark that I dreamt are all lies I have meant...
Throughout this darkened scene, dark skies invade my dreams.
The light resides in lines, offser in different times.
And I'm blinded by a sea of this strange memory.
Frames change and I'm still lost.
Scene stills lay still in this fog, ans I try only to see straight into through you.
Your eyes become so bare, an eager empty stare.
And I'm blinded by a sea of this strange memory.
And I am...and I see.. it's just me.
And I drift quietly through the thick of trees leaves.
My mind slowly separates from my body.
Days late and I'm not around now.. I don't care.
Dreamscapes escape all my thoughts. Awake.
I dream of a fate I cannot escape, now it's too late.
Time dies in straight lines. Waiting, and I can't take anything,
You try to believe everything, but I can't.
Follow me again, out from everything.
The dark that I dreamt are all lies I have meant...

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
wow. these lyrics are pretty cool, i gotta say. i dont even want to begin to try and interpret what there about. Crazy.
WHAT?!? ONLY ONE COMMENT ON THIS SONG?!? I truly believe that there is no Moneen song more beautiful than this one. Tonight I'm Gone... Mmm...
Yeah i definetly agree that this is the best moneen song out there...i saw them with northstar in a small club near me...and it was me and this one other guy rocking out b/c i've seen these guys live before but this was the first time they played this song...this song means so much to me i can't even put it into words...
oh my interpretation is that a guy is going out with a girl...she becomes distant and the guy doesn't know how to handle it...he shuts down and just stops caring about everything...so much emotion in this song
yeah i think this song is basically about losing a connection with your loved one. but enough of all that malarky. this song is truly amazing, the best moneen song by far, and one of my favourite songs of all time. so powerful and so raw. i love it, almost as much as i love the fact that i'm seeing them tomorrow night in Leeds :) ho ho ho i cannea wait. even though im going with a friend who insists on staying for senses fail. tut tut. i think with any reasonable amount of rational thought, we shudnt spoil that gig with senses fail or from autumn to ashes, i mean horrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
This song is absolutely amazing.
I love everything about it.
And I believe punkassportz88's interpretation makes a lot of sense.
Genius song. Simply love.
as if there's only six comments :O
and right this version that i've got i got of a friend because he wanted to get me into them and its got this voice on the end talking about experiments
anyone else heard this ??
yes! kieran43, Ive heard that version of a guy talking at the end. kinda creepy i have to admit. ive always wondered what that part was about though.
yes! kieran43, Ive heard that version of a guy talking at the end. kinda creepy i have to admit. ive always wondered what that part was about though. does anyone know?
oh and great song! it sends me through a whirlpool of emotions every time i listen to it <3
This has always been one of my favorite .moneen songs.
As to the the talking at the end of the track, Tonight, Im Gone is from the album, The Theory Of Harmonic Value. The long-winded monologue is a man explaining his journey uncovering and quantifying his Theory of Harmonic Value. The whole thing is basically why the album is named that.
In other words, do your deep thinking in the bathtub
I forget to also mention that at the end, overlayed with the lyrics, being yelled is "What am I doing here"
