Smith, Elliott - No Name #3 Lyrics






We arrived too late
Our mouths were opening
I turned off the light
So come on night
You're a witness, you
You've seen me interrupt
A good old-fashioned fight
So come on night
Everyone is gone
Home to oblivion
Home to oblivion
Home to oblivion
Watched the dying day
Blushing in the sky
Everyone is uptight
So come on night
Everyone is gone
Home to oblivion
Home to oblivion
Home to oblivion
Home to oblivion
I know we're not
Illegitimate
In our hearing
So come on
So come on night

  20. D.... M....

    I guess I found it really odd that not once during the entire commentary , even during the end scene which is so notable or any of the great scenes of Good Will Hunting , Did Gus , Matt , or ben mention Elliott Smith , and they used his songs the entire movie.

  21. L.... S....

    This song reminds me of mortality.

  22. m.... n....

    always cried to this song over the years

  23. G.... H....

    NOBODY can play like him, this guy was of such exceptional quality that a meteor could land in my backyard faster than the likelyhood of seeing this type again. From the musical skill and complexity to the personal identification of his lyrics, this man was one of the greatist artists of all time.

  24. s.... B....

    This Song is just more than a song, really loved it, while listening to this song makes me forget all pain.

  25. j.... d....

    criminally underrated

    j.... d....

    agreed brother

  27. m.... ....

    If he would have just went ahead and named it "Come on night" it would reach a lot more people. :/

    m.... ....

    Maybe but I don't think that was intention or the point.

    m.... ....

    I feel like he might have sabotaged it because he didn't like it enough...You're right it does seem like such an obvious choice

    m.... ....

    Just amazing...

    m.... ....

    I like the name “Dying day” for the song because the song talk about it when he says all the time “come on night” it seems to me that he really wants this day to come to an end and when tomorrow come out just as yesterday, I feel like the intention of the verse is to show the depression of the expectable- he saw and felt how the day is slightly dying and he wants it to stop like everyday because the characters day in the song is constantly dying... so I think it would’ve catch the intention of the song for me best.

  28. m.... ....

    Someone needs to loop this for an hour. :)

    Lyrics:

    We arrived too late
    Our mouths were opening
    I turned off the light
    So, come on, night

    You're a witness, you
    You've seen me interrupt
    A good, old-fashioned fight
    So, come on, night

    Everyone is gone
    Home to oblivion
    Home to oblivion
    Home to oblivion

    Watched the dying day
    Blushing in the sky
    Everyone is uptight
    So, come on, night

    Everyone is gone
    Home to oblivion
    Home to oblivion
    Home to oblivion
    Home to oblivion

    I know we're not
    Illegitimate
    In our hearing
    So, come on
    So, come on, night...

    O.... ....

    Can anyone explain the meaning?

  30. E.... G....

    i love this song more than anything

    E.... G....

    me too :')

  31. C.... R....

    Sometimes when I'm listening to Elliott in my car I'll just stare out into the heart of the sky and start talking to him as if he was right next to me alive and well. "Love you so much, bud."

    C.... R....

    Cae Rule sick duse

    C.... R....

    shut up lmao

    C.... R....

    I do the same thing. Wished I could've had a conversation with him.

    C.... R....

    Keep ur eyes on the road

  32. M.... J....

    That music is so much relaxing for me
    Thanks elliott

  33. M.... J....

    That music is so much relaxing for me
    Thanks elliott

  34. L.... K....

    I don't have any words for this. The music speaks for itself.

  35. E.... H....

    my favorite elliott smith song

    E.... H....

    Its one of my favorites too!

    E.... H....

    Emma Hazen without a doubt my favorite too

    E.... H....

    Emma Hazen same 🤗

    E.... H....

    This is my favorite Elliott Smith song also. A GOOD ONE!

  36. Z.... R....

    Don't thank Matt Damon or Ben Affleck, idiots. Thank Gus Van Sant for him being on Good Will Hunting's soundtrack.

    Z.... R....

    Seems harsh.

  37. T.... S....

    I know Elliott Smith can't this comment or any of these comments, but if he could, I hope he knows that ever since I discovered who he was, he has brought me closer to inner peace. His songs have been a kind of treatment for the depression I have faced in the past and as a musician, he inspires me every single damn day. I have nothing but love and gratitude for this man, and I wish he were still around today. I can easily say that thanks to his music, I am no longer home to oblivion.

    T.... S....

    Tom Schaum wow

    T.... S....

    haha , I swear , at the end it said home read more , and I was like , is this kid about to say Elliott got him to move out of his parents house ! haha

    T.... S....

    It's so sad having to know he'll never realize just how many lives he's saved through his voice and emotion.

    T.... S....

    @Gian Garcia or how he's consoled wretched souls from feelings of despair, it doesn't go away but alleviates for the duration of his songs.

    T.... S....

    @Lisa Yu so very very true.

  38. p.... ....

    this song is about the poignancy of working in a bar

  39. S.... H....

    Love this song soooo much

  40. j.... c....

    every time i think about killing myself i come to you . so thank you elliott, because im still here

    j.... c....

    @peanuts17 whattt??

    j.... c....

    Kevin Thomas suicide isn’t your only option my friend. Stay with us, please

    j.... c....

    @Omar Ben Jdida I am practically in tears reading your comment. I hope a year later finds you hanging in there & hopefully in a better place.

    j.... c....

    @Danielle Marin ahh, maybe let's hope he's not "hanging" in there.. if you get me.

    j.... c....

    @Cain Martel some people find solace in other people's pain, just as others find amusement.

  41. P.... ....

    no one can make the guitar cry like ol elliott could

    P.... ....

    @Ziziphus Mauritana Im your first suscriptor! :)

    P.... ....

    John Fahey could.

    P.... ....

    Or drop the "f" bomb and make it sound pretty.

  42. N.... ....

    I love how, at the end, when he sings "So, come on," there's a little crescendo. It feels like a sudden wave of music, and his voice makes it so relaxing. <3 Tomorrow will be 12 years after he died; rest in peace, Elliott.

  43. J.... ....

    Good Will Hunting is such a good movie

    J.... ....

    Q.E.D....or, "yeeup"

    J.... ....

    JarJoshBinks i love u 👍🏻

    J.... ....

    +psicofukapus
    That was just a stupid lurid tabloid rumor, dummy. It was an intentional suicide. They found hesitation marks on his wrists where he had started to cut them, but decided to go with asphyxiation instead. Stop spreading lies, it helps nobody. ;)

    J.... ....

    don't talk about Peter Pan That way

    J.... ....

    I was reading "Torment Saint" when that happened. Weird, right?

  44. J.... S....

    I love this song

    J.... S....

  51. J.... ....

    Depression and drug addiction brought me here. This is my medicine. 

    J.... ....

    Hang in there buddy... Since you've reached an all time low, the only direction left is getting back up. I know its much easier said than done. But find that missing motivation to push yourself. All the best man! God bless

    J.... ....

    Music is my higher power. It can be yours too.

    J.... ....

    You are not alone.

    J.... ....
