Some Nights

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
So lord, i'm still not sure what i stand for, oh
What do i stand for? what do i stand for?
Most nights, i don't know anymore
Oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Ooh, oh woah, oh woah 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
Tried 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
Stops my bones from wondering
Just who i, who i, who i am
Oh, who am i? mmm... *gingle* 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
So lord, i'm still not sure what i stand for, oh
What do i stand for? what do i stand for?
Most nights, i don't know
Oh come on, no, oh come on, oh come on

That 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 heck wants to die alone
All dried up in the desert sun?

My heart is breaking for my sister
And the con that she call "love"
When i look into my nephew's eyes
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from
Some terrible lies
Oh woah, ohhh
Ooh, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Most nights, i don't know anymore
