Last Night Lyrics
I'm still frustrated from last night
Things happening half time
I'm sick of the bends
My panic research was no help
I sink into myself
Afraid of the fall that never ends
I wait, but I'm too tired to play pretend
I'll suffocate until the end
No time for half-hearted goodbyes
I turn on the spotlight and flee from the scene
Cheap flights from Paris to Bangkok
I thought it was non-stop
Can't sleep on the KLM again
I haunt the halls of medicine at night
Choking back the urge to fight
Her cat was clawing the floorboards
Just outside of our door
The panic begins
I search the whole damn apartment
From ceiling to carpet
No sign of the things she used to own
As autumn turns its back on me again,
I climb the walls for oxygen
My body aches, it heaves, it shakes
All somersaults through so-called art
And I still don't know exactly who I am
I never will,
Amen
She whispers something in my ear
The message is unclear
She motions outside
I trail her closely from behind
She tries hard not to cry
She shakes underneath the pouring rain
"I can't compete with all your damn ideas
This isn't working out for you and me
The truth is I'm too tired to play pretend
This is goodbye; this is the end."
Things happening half time
I'm sick of the bends
I sink into myself
Afraid of the fall that never ends
I wait, but I'm too tired to play pretend
I'll suffocate until the end
I turn on the spotlight and flee from the scene
I thought it was non-stop
Can't sleep on the KLM again
I haunt the halls of medicine at night
Choking back the urge to fight
Just outside of our door
The panic begins
From ceiling to carpet
No sign of the things she used to own
As autumn turns its back on me again,
I climb the walls for oxygen
All somersaults through so-called art
And I still don't know exactly who I am
I never will,
Amen
The message is unclear
She motions outside
She tries hard not to cry
She shakes underneath the pouring rain
"I can't compete with all your damn ideas
This isn't working out for you and me
The truth is I'm too tired to play pretend
This is goodbye; this is the end."

i think it's about justin pierre breaking up with his girlfriend.
that cat was clawing the floorboards just outside of our door the panic begins
thanks!
this is a great song, and stands out a lot to me on the album. addicting song; sad lyrics
'sick of the bends' isnt it?
I think that it's "All sommersalts through so-called-art"
sad song with such good music...
i love the break down with just josh's guitar and justin singing mint!
i'm pretty sure it's "oh, then" or "and then", not "amen"
no it's amen. but awesome song. and i could have sworn this song was produced by robert smith because it sounds EXACTLY like the keyboards on close to me. it's ridiculous how close it sounds.
Definitely amen, according to the album booklet.
This is definitely up there on my favourite songs by MCS.
