about

Tonight, feels like Nice Guy are taking another confident step forward, whilst fitting in seamlessly with their previous releases.

Writer and lyricist Michael McCluskey "Tonight is written about reaching that breaking point in a relationship that’s gone bad and how there’s no shame in calling time on a fight you don’t need to have.

Too many people stay in unhealthy relationships in some misguided belief that to leave is to give up and the wrong thing to do. This song aims to challenge that through the perspective of a couple who have reached their ‘breaking point’ and have decided to call it a day, rather than keep fighting for something that doesn’t work"

lyrics

We always seem to disagree,
Over trivial shit, that should not need a second thought,
Were we in love,
Happy though we once had been,
Lately I feel differently,
And I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one.

Maybe we don’t need to fight this anymore,
God knows to try, would only serve us wrong,
When you can’t remember what you’re fighting for,
It’s not giving up, it’s moving on.

Darling all the lies,
All the awful silences,
It at stops tonight,
The changing of your mind,
There’s no point in
trying now,
It all stops tonight.

Go ahead, call your friends,
Tell them I was cold again,
Thought I often was,
So were you,
We pushed it when we should have pulled,
We broke our backs, we smashed our skulls,
Nothing worked,
We came out black and blue.

Maybe we don’t need to fight this anymore,
God knows to try would only serve us wrong,
When you can’t remember what you’re fighting for,
It’s not giving up, it’s moving on.

Darling all the lies,
All the awful silences,
It all stops tonight,
The changing of your mind,
There’s no point in trying now,
It all stops tonight.
