We'll Never Sleep (God Knows We'll Try) Lyrics
Stealing away into the night won't get you any higher
We'll never sleep, God knows we'll try
The hospital is closed
And how long will it last before we go insane?
We circle your uncle's parking lot
Just to see how many times that we can
Before we get caught
You guessed on twenty
And how long will you stare before I look away?
And I don't want to go
Begged them to stay, they're on holiday
Just close the door, you can watch Final Four
And just fall away
Stealing away just isn't right
Just because you're angry
If you go, I think I might lose it altogether
And how long will we last before we go insane?
I don't want to
We'll never sleep, God knows we'll try
The hospital is closed
And how long will it last before we go insane?
Just to see how many times that we can
Before we get caught
You guessed on twenty
And how long will you stare before I look away?
And I don't want to go
Just close the door, you can watch Final Four
And just fall away
Just because you're angry
If you go, I think I might lose it altogether
And how long will we last before we go insane?
I don't want to

i dont really understand this song, i think its about 2 reckless friends.. or something. ??
sorry it's been so long for you to get a reply, but...
This song is about a pair of kids who may be attracted to each other or just simply dependent on each other for happiness. "And how long will you stare before I look away? And I don't want to go" is showing how they like to look at each other in amazement because they are so into each other. "Stealing away just isn't right Just because you're angry If you go, I think I might lose it altogether And how long will we last before we go insane?" is talking about how one friend could be angry at the other and so they go away from the other and the friend doesn't want them to go because they would lose their mind without the other. They need each other to be complete. They are in love without possibly knowing it.
i think it's about two friends, or maybe lovers. and whatever they have is fading, and one of them wants to work at it and the other doesn't, and they're just running away from the problem. or the possibility of romance is there, and one of them wants to pursue it, but there are problems between both of them, and the other doesn't want to.
"If you go, I think I might lose it altogether And how long will we last before we go insane? I don't want to" =awesome. I agree with ohh_reckless.
i don't get what it's saying relationship wise, because i've only been in one... but from what i do understand, i love it... and i love the guitar solo at the end, it reminds me soo much of elliot smith's stuff
I think it's about running away from troubles without facing them, that why
it's about two people, who are intently attracted to each other. and they might love each other. but one thing or another keeps them from ever truly finding out. and this song is about their constant push-pull.

what is Final Four?
what is final four?
so this comment is coming a year and a half late, but it has to be answered. Final Four is the college basketball tournament. well the last four teams in the tournament to be exact. Also, any song can be about drugs if you want to make it about drugs.
