Some Nights

Some nights, I stay up cashing 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
What do I stand for? what do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know... anymore

Oh, oh... Oh, oh... Oh, 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
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked
But here they come again to jack my style

And 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? oh...

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 still don't know what I stand for
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 stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like this...

So come on, come on
Oh come on
OH COME ON...

Oh, oh... Oh, oh... Oh, oh...
