Some nights I stay up
cashing in my bad luck
Some nights I call it a draw
Some nights I wish that
my lips could build a castle
Some nights I wish
they'd just fall off
But I still wake up
I still see your ghost
Oh Lord I'm still not sure
what I stand for oh-oh
What do I stand for
What do I stand for
Most nights
I don't know anymore
Oh-ooh ooh-woah
ooh-woah oh
Oh-ooh ooh-woah
ooh-woah oh
This is it boys
this is war
What are we waiting for
Why don't we break
the rules already
I was never one
to believe the hype
Save that for the black
and white
Try twice as hard
and I'm half as liked
But here they come again
to jack my style
That's alright
I found a martyr
in my bed tonight
She stops my bones
from wondering just
who I am who I am
who I am
Oh who am I
Mmm mmm
Well some nights I wish
that this all would end
'Cause I could use
some friends for a change
And some nights I'm scared
you'll forget me again
Some nights I always win
I always win
But I still wake up
I still see your ghost
Oh Lord I'm still not sure
what I stand for oh-oh
What do I stand for
What do I stand for
Most nights I don't know
so this is it
I sold my soul for this
Washed my hands
of that for this
I miss my mom
and dad for this
No when I see stars
when I see
When I see stars
that's all they are
When I hear songs
They sound like a swan
so come on
Oh come on oh come on
oh come on
Well this is it guys
that is all
Five minutes in
and I'm bored again
Ten years of this I'm not sure
if anybody understands
This one is not
for the folks at home
Sorry to leave Mom
I had to go
Who the fuck wants to die alone
all dried up in the desert sun
My heart is breaking
for my sister
And the con that
she called love
And then I look
into my nephew's eyes
Man you wouldn't believe
The most amazing things
That can come from
Some terrible nights
Oh-ooh ooh-woah
ooh-woah oh
Oh-ooh ooh-woah
ooh-woah oh
The other night
you wouldn't believe
The dream I just had
about you and me
I called you up
but we both agree
It's for the best
you didn't listen
It's for the best
we get our distance oh
For the best
you didn't listen
It's for the best
we get our distance oh
