Until the Night Turns Lyrics
I had a vision at night that the world was ending
Yeah the sky was falling, the tide was bending
I watched the heavens collide right before my eyes
What if the world dies with the sun rise?
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
I had a visitor come from the great beyond
Tell me all the time that the world is done
Had to watch for a sign in the midnight sky
What if the world dies with the sun rise?
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
What if the world dies with the sun rise?
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
We'll run for the sunrise
We watch as the world dies
We howl at the moonlight
When the world end comes, baby don't close your eyes
We'll run for the sunrise
We'll wait for the sunrise
I had a vision at night that the world was ending
Yeah the sky was falling, the tide was bending
Spent our last night in the moonlight
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
I got a helluva of a view for the end of the world
I got a bottle of booze and a beautiful girl
If I'm going to die let me go with the sky
What if the world dies with the sun rise?
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
What if the world dies with the sun rise?
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
Yeah we're going til the night turns into the day
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
Yeah the sky was falling, the tide was bending
I watched the heavens collide right before my eyes
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
Tell me all the time that the world is done
Had to watch for a sign in the midnight sky
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
We watch as the world dies
We howl at the moonlight
When the world end comes, baby don't close your eyes
We'll run for the sunrise
We'll wait for the sunrise
Yeah the sky was falling, the tide was bending
Spent our last night in the moonlight
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
I got a bottle of booze and a beautiful girl
If I'm going to die let me go with the sky
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
Baby it's all right we'll be up all night
What if the right day when the stars fade
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day
Yeah we're going til the night turns into the day
We'll keep going til the night turns into the day

I liked the song at first for its rare positivity towards doom, about savoring the short night left for the song's persona. Rather fun. However, re-listening to it I noticed the lyric that "time was bending." The rest of the song focuses of the linear night ending in the sunrise. But if "time was bending," whether it means the future or past happening with the present night, the idea of the linear night "turning into the day" kind of... breaks. Going out on a limb here, but one idea this gave me (assuming the time-contradiction was intentional at all?) is that this 'final night' is what the rest of one's lifetime feels like. If time is bending, from now until your death is the same as your last few hours until your death.
