some nights　[FUN.]

(ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ｓｔａｙ　ｕｐ)

Some nights I stay up

(ｃａｓｈｉｎｇ　ｉｎ　ｍｙ　ｂａｄ　ｌｕｃｋ)

cashing in my bad luck,

(ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ｃａｌｌ　ｉｔ　ａ　ｄｒａｗ)

Some nights I call it a draw

(ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ｗｉｓｈ　ｔｈａｔ)

Some nights I wish that

(ｍｙ　ｌｉｐｓ　ｃｏｕｌｄ　ｂｕｉｌｄ　ａ　ｃａｓｔｅｌ)

my lips could build a castel,

(ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ)

Some nights

(ｉ　ｗｉｓｈ　ｔｈｅｙｄ　ｊｕｓｔ　ｆａｌｌ　ｏｆｆ)

I wish they’d just fall off

(ｂｕｔ　ｉ　ｓｔｉｌｌ　ｗａｋｅ　ｕｐ)

But I still wake up,

(ｉ　ｓｔｉｌｌ　ｓｅｅ　ｙｏｕｒ　ｇｈｏｓｔ)

I still see your ghost

(ｏｈ　ｌｏｒｄ　ｉｍ　ｓｔｉｌｌ　ｎｏｔ　ｓｕｒｅ)

Oh, Lord, I’m still not sure

(ｗｈａｔ　　ｉ　ｓｔａｎｄ　ｆｏｒ　ｏｈ)

what do I stand for oh

(ｗｈａｔ　ｄｏ　ｉ　ｓｔａｎｄ　ｆｏｒ)

What do I stand for?

(ｗｈａｔ　ｄｏ　ｉ　ｓｔａｎｄ　ｆｏｒ)

What do I stand for?

(ｍｏｓｔ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ｄｏｎｔ　ｋｎｏｗ　ａｎｙｍｏｒｅ)

Most nights, I don’t know anymore

(ｏｈｏｈｏｈ)

Oh oh oh

(ｔｈｉｓ　ｉｓ　ｉｔ　ｂｏｙｓ　ｔｈｉｓ　ｉｓ　ｗａｒ)

This is it, boys, this is war,

(ｗｈａｔ　ａｒｅ　ｗｅ　ｗａｉｔｉｎｇ　ｆｏｒ)

What are we waiting for?

(ｗｈｙ　ｄｏｎｔ　ｗｅ　ｂｒｅａｋ)

Why don’t we break

(ｔｈｅ　ｒｕｌｅｓ　ａｌｒｅａｄｙ)

the rules already?

(ｉ　ｗａｓ　ｎｅｖｅｒ　ｏｎｅ　ｔｏ　ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅ　ｔｈｅ　ｈｙｐｅ)

I was never one to believe the hype,

(ｓａｖｅ　ｔｈａｔ　ｆｏｒ　ｂｌａｃｋ　ａｎｄ　ｗｈｉｔｅ)

Save that for black and white

(ｉ　ｔｒｙ　ｔｗｉｃｅ　ａｓ　ｈａｒｄ)

I try twice as hard

(ａｎｄ　ｉｍ　ｈａｌｆ　ａｓ　ｌｉｋｅｄ)

and I’m half as liked,

(ｂｕｔ　ｈｅｒｅ　ｔｈｅｙ　ｃｏｍｅ　ａｇａｉｎ)

But here they come again

(ｔｏ　ｊａｃｋ　ｍｙ　ｓｔｙｌｅ)

to jack my style

(ｔｈａｔｓ　ａｌｒｉｇｈｔ)

That’s alright,

(ｉ　ｆｏｕｎｄ　ａ　ｍａｒｔｙｒ　ｉｎ　ｍｙ　ｂｅｄ　ｔｏｎｉｇｈｔ)

I found a martyr in my bed tonight

(ｓｈｅ　ｓｔｏｐｓ　ｍｙ　ｂｏｎｅｓ　ｆｒｏｍ　ｗｏｎｄｅｒｉｎｇ)

She stops my bones from wondering

(ｊｕｓｔ　ｗｈｏ　ｉ　ａｍ)

just who I am?

(ｗｅｌｌ　ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ｗｉｓｈ　ｔｈａｔ)

Well, some nights I wish that

(ｔｈｉｓ　ａｌｌ　ｗｏｕｌｄ　ｅｎｄ)

this all would end,

(ｃａｕｓｅ　ｉ　ｃｏｕｌｄ　ｕｓｅ　ｓｏｍｅ　ｆｒｉｅｎｄｓ)

'Cause I could use some friends

(ｆｏｒ　ａ　ｃｈａｎｇｅ)

for a change

(ａｎｄ　ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉｍ　ｓｃａｒｅｄ)

And some nights I’m scared

(ｙｏｕｌｌ　ｆｏｒｇｅｔ　ｍｅ　ａｇａｉｎ)

you’ll forget me again,

(ｓｏｍｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ａｌｗａｙｓ　ｗｉｎ)

Some nights I always win,

(ｉ　ａｌｗａｙｓ　ｗｉｎ)

I always win

(ｂｕｔ　ｉ　ｓｔｉｌｌ　ｗａｋｅ　ｕｐ)

But I still wake up,

(ｉ　ｓｔｉｌｌ　ｓｅｅ　ｙｏｕｒ　ｇｈｏｓｔ)

I still see your ghost,

(ｏｈ　ｌｏｒｄ　ｉｍ　ｓｔｉｌｌ　ｎｏｔ　ｓｕｒｅ)

Oh, Lord, I’m still not sure

(ｗｈａｔ　ｉ　ｓｔａｎｄ　ｆｏｒ　ｏｈ)

what I stand for, oh

(ｗｈａｔ　ｄｏ　ｉ　ｓｔａｎｄ　ｆｏｒ)

What do I stand for?

(ｗｈａｔ　ｄｏ　ｉ　ｓｔａｎｄ　ｆｏｒ)

What do I stand for?

(ｍｏｓｔ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ　ｉ　ｄｏｎｔ　ｋｎｏｗ　ｃｏｍｅ　ｏｎ)

Most nights, I don’t know, (come on)

(ｓｏ　ｔｈｉｓ　ｉｓ　ｉｔ)

So this is it?

(ｉ　ｓｏｌｄ　ｍｙ　ｓｏｕｌ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｉｓ)

I sold my soul for this?

(ｗａｓｈｅｄ　ｍｙ　ｈａｎｄｓ　ｏｆ　ｔｈａｔ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｉｓ)

Washed my hands of that for this?

(ｉ　ｍｉｓｓ　ｍｙ　ｍｏｍ　ａｎｄ　ｄａｄ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｉｓ)

I miss my mom and dad for this?

(ｎｏ　ｗｈｅｎ　ｉ　ｓｅｅ　ｓｔａｒｓ)

No. when I see stars,

(ｗｈｅｎ　ｉ　ｓｅｅ　ｗｈｅｎ　ｉ　ｓｅｅ　ｓｔａｒｓ)

when I see, when I see stars,

(ｔｈａｔｓ　ａｌｌ　ｔｈｅｙ　ａｒｅ)

that’s all they are

(ｗｈｅｎ　ｉ　ｈｅａｒ　ｓｏｎｇｓ)

When I hear songs,

(ｔｈｅｙ　ｓｏｕｎｄ　ｌｉｋｅ　ｔｈｉｓ　ｏｎｅ)

they sound like this one,

(ｓｏ　ｃｏｍｅ　ｏｎ　ｏｈ　ｃｏｍｅ　ｏｎ　ｏｈ)

so come on, oh come on. Oh

(ｃｏｍｅ　ｏｎ　ｏｈ　ｃｏｍｅ　ｏｎ)

come on, oh come on

(ｗｅｌｌ　ｔｈａｔ　ｉｓ　ｉｔ　ｇｕｙｓ　ｔｈａｔ　ｉ　ｓａｌｌ)

well that is it guys, that is all,

(ｆｉｖｅ　ｍｉｎｕｔｅｓ　ｉｎ　ａｎｄ　ｉｍ　ｂｏｒｅｄ　ａｇａｉｎ)

five minutes in and I’m bored again,

(ｔｅｎ　ｙｅａｒｓ　ｏｆ　ｔｈｉｓ)

Ten years of this,

(ｉｍ　ｎｏｔ　ｓｕｒｅ　ｉｆ　ａｎｙｂｏｄｙ　ｕｎｄｅｒｓｔａｎｄｓ)

I’m not sure if anybody understands

(ｔｈｉｓ　ｏｎｅ　ｉｓ　ｎｏｔ　ｆｏｒ)

This one is not for

(ｔｈｅ　ｆｏｌｋｓ　ａｔ　ｈｏｍｅ)

the folks at home,

(ｓｏｒｒｙ　ｔｏ　ｌｅａｖｅ　ｍｏｍ　ｉ　ｈａｄ　ｔｏ　ｇｏ)

sorry to leave, mom, I had to go

(ｗｈｏ　ｔｈｅ　ｆ／／ｋ　ｗａｎｔｓ　ｔｏ　ｄｉｅ　ａｌｏｎｅ)

Who the f//k wants to die alone

(ａｌｌ　ｄｒｉｅｄ　ｕｐ　ｉｎ　ｔｈｅ　ｄｅｓｅｒｔ　ｓｕｎ)

all dried up in the desert sun?

(ｍｙ　ｈｅａｒｔｓ　ｉｓ　ｂｒｅａｋｉｎｇ　ｆｏｒ　ｍｙ　ｓｉｓｔｅｒ)

My hearts is breaking for my sister

(ａｎｄ　ｔｈｅ　ｃｏｎ　ｔｈａｔ　ｓｈｅ　ｃａｌｌ　ｌｏｖｅ)

and the con that she call “love”

(ｗｈｅｎ　ｉ　ｌｏｏｋ　ｉｎｔｏ　ｍｙ　ｎｅｐｈｅｗｓ　ｅｙｅｓ)

When I look into my nephew’s eyes,

(ｍａｎ　ｙｏｕ　ｗｏｕｌｄｎｔ　ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅ)

Man, you wouldn’t believe

(ｔｈｅ　ｍｏｓｔ　ａｍａｚｉｎｇ　ｔｈｉｎｇｓ)

the most amazing things

(ｔｈａｔ　ｃａｎ　ｃｏｍｅ　ｆｒｏｍ)

that can come from

(ｓｏｍｅ　ｔｅｒｒｉｂｌｅ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ)

Some terrible nights

(ｏｈｏｈｏｈ)

oh oh oh

(ｔｈｅ　ｏｔｈｅｒ　ｎｉｇｈｔｓ)

The other nights,

(ｙｏｕ　ｗｏｕｌｄｎｔ　ｂｅｌｉｅｖｅ　ｔｈｅ　ｄｒｅａｍ)

you wouldn’t believe the dream

(ｉ　ｊｕｓｔ　ｈａｄ　ａｂｏｕｔ　ｙｏｕ　ａｎｄ　ｍｅ)

I just had about you and me

(ｉ　ｃａｌｌｅｄ　ｙｏｕ　ｕｐ　ｂｕｔ　ｗｅｄ　ｂｏｔｈ　ａｇｒｅｅ)

I called you up but we’d both agree

(ｉｔｓ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｅ　ｂｅｓｔ　ｙｏｕ　ｄｉｄｎｔ　ｌｉｓｔｅｎ)

It’s for the best you didn’t listen

(ｉｔｓ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｅ　ｂｅｓｔ)

It’s for the best

(ｗｅ　ｇｅｔ　ｏｕｒ　ｄｉｓｔａｎｃｅ　ｏｈ)

we get our distance, oh

(ｉｔｓ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｅ　ｂｅｓｔ)

It’s for the best

(ｙｏｕ　ｄｉｄｎｔ　ｌｉｓｔｅｎ)

you didn’t listen

(ｉｔｓ　ｆｏｒ　ｔｈｅ　ｂｅｓｔ)

It’s for the best

(ｗｅ　ｇｅｔ　ｏｕｒ　ｄｉｓｔａｎｃｅ　ｏｈ)

we get our distance, oh
