Die For A Night Lyrics
Pain is a language I can read
So I'd rather remain illiterate tonight so I can sleep
I know it'll come out eventually
Can you show signs of weakness asymptomatically?
[Pre-Chorus]
All I want is a cigarette
Until I realize I've got none left
[Chorus]
I always wonder
What it would be like
If I could die for a night
Would anyone mind it?
Would everyone like it?
If I could die for a night
[Post-Chorus]
I don't know what I'm talking about
I don't know what I'm talking about
I don't know what I'm talking about
I don't know what I'm talking about
I don't know what I'm talking about
I don't know what I'm talking about

I brought in a really good friend of mine, a kid called Jordan Brasko Gable. I met this fucking little twat in a Thai restaurant, and he’s got a Karl Marx book in his back pocket. I rolled my eyes but he was so intellectual. We spoke about Kurt Vonnegut and Oscar Wilde, and now he’s a songwriter. He pushed me on my lyricism. He sat opposite me and was like, ‘No, you can say that better. Morrissey would say that better. John Lydon would say that better. Fucking Alex Turner could say that better.’ He challenged me. It’s when I came up with ‘Pain is language I can read/So I’d rather remain illiterate tonight so I can sleep'—his eyes lit up and I was like, 'I know I’ve got something.’
