Until Morning Lyrics

It was the year, I crashed my motorbike
I think it was, the summer
I think you whispered
"When you gonna wake up,
when you gonna wake up?"

Dear, slip these on your tongue
Little seeds of reinvention
And Angels hands
The medicine of modern man(?)

Wait now,
Tell me that this isn't over,
Hang on,
Just long enough

If this is heaven
Or if it's just a warning
Say you will
Stay with me
Even if it's just 'til morning
If this is over
Then why is it so hard just
Say you will
Stay here with me
One more night

Stay here
And we can start again
We could be made over
You'll hear us shouting
"When you gonna wake up,
when you gonna wake up?"

Scared,
well everyone gets scared
Just signal when you're ready
And Angels hands
Sleep so steady, Sleep so steady

Wait now,
Tell me that this isn't over
Hang on,
Just long enough

If this is heaven
Or if it's just a warning
Say you will
Stay with me
Even if it's just 'til morning
If this is over
Then why is it so hard just
Say you will
Stay here with me
One more night

If you're running, from your secrets
I will make you take them with you
I am ready, I can take it
You don't have to carry them alone
There's a way out, if you want it
To an end, or a new beginning
You just have to find it on your own

If this is heaven
Or if it's just a warning
Say you will
Stay with me

If this is over
Then why is it so hard just
Say you will
Stay with me
One more night
One more night
One more night
Even if it's just til morning
One more night
One more night
One more night
Even if it's just til morning


Even if it's just til morning

this song is really good. it can be related to any slowly fading situation really - in particular, this is about not wanting someone to die for whatever reason, i would assume that the two were friends and tried drugs:

Dear, slip these on your tongue Little seeds of reinvention And Angels hands The medicine of modern man

...and while the singer is alright, they're waiting by the other who may have gone too far with the drugs, i assume, and just wants them to hear that they wish they weren't going, and wish that they would stay alive as long as possible, so they can be together.

i fear that this may happen to a friend of mine...

To me, the drugs thing seems like it's more an act of desperation to keep the person alive. Not the cause of the death but a way to keep them alive for a little bit longer. That's just me though.

Yeah, so other than that I don't know whether to take this song literally or not.

But literally I guess it's desperate for the person to say alive for just a little bit longer. And metaphorically it's desperate for the person to not leave the singer for just a little bit longer.
