Some Nights (Intro) Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

There are some nights I hold on to every note I ever wrote
Some nights, I say "fuck it all" and stare at the calendar
Waiting for catastrophes, imagine when they scare me
Into changing whatever it is I am changing into...

And you have every right to be scared.

Cos there are some nights I hold you close, pushing you to hold me
Or begging you to lock me up, never let me see the world
Some nights, I live in horror of people on the radio
Tea parties and Twitter, I've never been so bitter

And you, why you wanna stay?
Oh my God! Have you listened to me lately?
Lately, I've been going crazy...

And you, why you wanna stay?
Oh my God! Have you listened to me lately?
Lately, I've been fucking crazy...

There are some nights I wait for someone to save us
But I never look inward, try not to look upward
And some nights I pray a sign is gonna come to me
But usually, I'm just trying to get some sleep...

Some nights!

Some Nights Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : 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
Oh 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 woah oh oh
oh woah, 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
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, 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
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know... (come on)

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 a swan, so come on
Oh, come on. 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 is not one for the folks at home; I'm 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"
But when I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible nights...ahhh...

oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh
oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh

The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...

It Gets Better Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

What are we doing, oh my god
What are we doing, oh my god

This is really happening
You never looked so bored
Can you feel my fingernails?
They've never been so short

It's hard to lay a golden egg with everyone around
It's hard to stay inside my head when words keep pouring out

Like starlight crashing through the room, we'll lose our feathers
Yes, I know it hurts at first but it gets better

It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

I can taste your summer sweat
It's never been so warm
So can we kick the covers off?
They're always on
It's never been so warm

It's hard to keep a straight face when I just want to smile
If you could see the look that's in your eyes

Like starlight crashing through the room, we'll lose our feathers
Yes, I know it hurts at first but it gets better

It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

There's a fire in sky
Some snow on the ground
Not quite enough cigarettes
To calm me down

What are we doing, oh my god
What are we doing, oh my god

It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

(This is really happening)
It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

(This is really happening)
It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, we'll get better

Why Am I The One Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

I got enough on my mind that when she pulls me by the hair
she hasn't much to hold onto

She keeping count on her hand One, Two, Three days
that I been sleeping on my side

I finished kissing my death, so now I head back up the steps
Thinking about where I've been, I mean the sun was never like this
I wanna feel with the season. I guess it makes sense
cause my lifes become as vapid as a night out in Los Angeles
and I just want to stay in bed, and hold you like I used to
You know that I am home, so darling if you love me
would you let me know...

Or go on, go on, go on, if you were thinking that the worst is yet to come
Why and I the one always packing all my stuff

For once, for once, for once, I get the feeling that I'm right where I belong
Why am I the one always packing all my stuff

She got enough on her mind
that she feel no sorrow
I let my fate fill the air
so now she rollin down her window
Never been one to hold on
but I need a last breath
so I ask if she remembers when
she used to come and visit me
we were fools to think that nothing could go wrong

Go on, go on, go on, if you were thinking that the worst is yet to come
Why am I the one always packing all my stuff

For once, for once, for once, I get the feeling that im right where I belong
Why am I the one always packing all my stuff
I think I kinda like it but I might of had too much

I'll move back down to this western town
when they find me out make no mistake about it

I'll move back down to this western town
when they find me out make no mistake about it

I'll move back down to this western town...
Go on, go on, go on, if you were thinkin that the worst is yet to come
Why am I the one always packin all stuff

Go on, go on, go on, if you were thinkin that the worst is yet to come
Why am I the one always packin all stuff

For once, for once, for once, I get the feeling that im right where I belong
Why am I the one always packin all my stuff

I think I kinda like it but I might of had too much
and I'll move back down...

All Alone Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

I fell in love with a wind-up souvenir
I bought it downtown as I was on my way to meet you
She sounds the like the songs you used to sing to put me to sleep
Now that you're gone, she's all that I've left to hold

And I feel so all alone
No one's gonna fix me when I'm broke
How do you cry with inanimate eyes?
You're never gonna smile with the way that you are

And I feel so all alone

I can't be you
I thought you might appreciate
The way that she dances
The painted look upon her face
She must have come from the sun
I want to take her through the park
Where she'd tell me I'm all that she wants
If she could even talk

I feel so all alone
No one's gonna fix me when I'm broke
How do you cry with inanimate eyes?
You're never gonna smile with the way that you are

And I feel so all alone
I feel so all alone

And she seems...my shell
It makes me think of you
The way she carries the things that remind me of who
We used to be before we became antiques
She's a lot like you
But when I hold her too tight, I know she'll break
She just takes some glue to stay

I feel so all alone
No one's gonna fix me when I'm broke
How do you cry with inanimate eyes?
You're never gonna smile with the way that you are

And I feel so all alone
I feel so all alone
I feel so all alone

All Alright Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

And it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.
Yeah, it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.

And I got the call soon as the day hit night.
As soon as the headlights lit up the Westside.
I stopped the car and came outside
Cause I know that tone.
I remember the first time
we wished upon parallel lines.
Waiting for a friend to call
and say they're still alive.
I've given everyone I know
a good reason to go.
I was surprised you stuck around
long enough to figure out

That it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.
Yeah, it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.

And now all my loves that come back to haunt me.
My regrets and texts sent to taunt me.
I never claimed to be more than a one-night stand
I've given everyone I know
a good reason to go.
But I came back with the belief
that everyone I love is gonna leave me.

And it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.
And it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all all

And I know, ohh nooo,
You've fallen from the sun.
Crashing through the clouds.
I see you burning out.
And I know, ohh nooo,
that I put up a front
But maybe, just this once,
let me keep this one.

And it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.
And it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.
Yeah, it's all alright.
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.
And it's all alright
I guess it's all alright.
I got nothing left inside of my chest,
but it's all alright.

Stars Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

Growing old is getting old
I often find myself here thinking
About the birds, the boats, and past loves that flew away or started sinking
And it's crazy here without you
I used to think this all was ours
We'd stay up late, debate on how we'd find our way
Say it's all up in the stars

Some nights I rule the world
With bar lights and pretty girls
But most nights I stay straight and think about my mom
Oh god, I miss her so much

And there are people on the street
They're coming up to me
They're telling me that they like what I do now
And so I tried my best when I took the fall
To get right back up, back in your arms
If you're out here why do I miss you so much

I feel like I had it all
Back before I lost it all
Now I just wait for you to talk to me
But you won't even look at me, baby

And I'd be saying that you
You're always holding on to stars
I think they're better from afar
Cause no one is gonna save us

Oh, and me
Well, I have faded in the dark
So don't you ever kiss me
Don't you wish on me
Why can't you see that no one's gonna save us?
Oh, come on girl

I just need a helping hand
I close my eyes and think about tomorrow
It never came true
It came true
It never came true

Oh, and you
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
Cause no one is gonna save us

Oh, and you
You're always holding on to stars
I think they're better from afar
Because no one is gonna save us

Oh, and me
I have faded in the dark
So don't you ever kiss me
Don't you wish on me
Why can't you see that no one's gonna save us?
No one's gonna save us
No one's gonna save me now

No, no, no
No, no, no
No one's gonna save us
Who we are, who we are
Who you are, who you are
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars
You're always holding on to stars

Out On The Town Lyrics

Artist : FUN.
Album : Some Nights

I set all my regrets on fire
Cause I know I'll never take the time
To unpack my missteps and call all of our friends
I figure they would take your side

I make the bed, just not that well
Your name comes up a lot
When I talk to my mom
Oh, I think she can tell

I was out on the town
So I came to your window last night
I tried not to throw stones
But I wanted to come inside
Now I'm causing a scene, but you need a reason to smile
Oh no, what have I done?
There's no one to keep me warm

So maybe I should put up a fight
I'll call them back and borrow a box knife
So I can learn to live with all the stupid shit I've been doing since '99

And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more strong
But I'm waiting for the day you come back and say
"Hey, maybe I should change my mind"

I drink a lot
I'm not sure if that's new
But these days when I wake up from a night I forgot
I just wish that it never came true

I was out on the town
So I came to your window last night
I tried not to throw stones
But I wanted to come inside
Now I'm causing a scene, but you need a reason to smile
Oh no, what have I done?
There's no one to keep me warm

And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more strong
And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more clever

I knew there would come a day when all was said and done
(And I know I could be more clever)
Everything I was is everything but gone
(And I know I could be more strong)
All my big mistakes are bouncing off your wall
(And I know I could be more clever)
The bottles never break, the sorrow never comes
(And I know I could be more clever)
So come on let me in, I will be the sun
(And I know I could be more clever)
I will wake you up, I am who [?]
(And I know I could be more strong)
Just open up your heart, open up your heart, open up your heart
(And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more)

I was out on the town
So I came to your window last night
I tried not to throw stones
But I wanted to come inside
Now I'm causing a scene, but you need a reason to smile
Oh no, what have I done?
There's no one to keep me warm

Welcome Lyrics

Artist : TONIGHT ALIVE
Album : What Are You So Scared Of?

Did I come at a bad time?
Did I say something wrong?
And don't tell me I'm crazy, I wouldn't be writing this song
If I didn't feel, didn't feel this way.
Baby is it real, is it real?
Don't say I'm not dreaming
Just tell me I'm not awake.

'Cause I just don't feel welcome in this house anymore
And it just doesn't feel as safe as it did only just two days before.
Why do we come this way, I'm not sure.
Woah, but the one thing is for certain, I don't want to do this anymore.

Did I disappoint you baby or did I just take too long.
'Cause honestly lately I can't tell whats going on
And I don't want to make this about me
And I don't want to pleed on you
But surely I've got something to do with you feeling blue

'Cause I just don't feel welcome in this house anymore
And it just doesn't feel as safe as it did only just two days before.
Why do we come this way, I'm not sure.
Woah, but the one thing is for certain, I don't want to do this anymore.
Anymore [x4]

Did I come at a bad time?
Did I say something wrong?
And don't tell me I'm crazy, I wouldn't be singing this song.

'Cause I just don't feel welcome in this house anymore
And it just doesn't feel as safe as it did only just two days before.
Why do we come this way, I'm not sure.
Woah, but the one thing is for certain, I don't want to do this anymore. [x2]

Take Me Down Lyrics

Artist : TONIGHT ALIVE
Album : What Are You So Scared Of?

I don’t have a lot to say
I’m short on my words today
But either way you should know
You wont get away to easy this time

You’ve got another thing coming if you think your coming over tonight
It’s never going to be fun when you just try to hard to make it right

Take me down
Bring me down with you,
you know what to do
C’mon baby, break me out
We can run away
Nothing left to say
But I want you to know that I need you now
I know that nothing will bring us down

Well I don’t mind you under my skin
Watch life slip out and love seep in
You’ll never know how much I have to show
With time you’ll learnt to let it go

You’ve got another thing coming if you think your coming over tonight
It’s never going to be fun when you just try to hard to make it right

Take me down
Bring me down with you,
you know what to do
C’mon baby, break me out
We can run away
Nothing left to say
But I want you to know that I need you now
I know that nothing will bring us down

So why won’t you,

Take me down
Bring me down with you
You know what to do
Common baby, break me out
We can run away
Nothing left to say
But I want you to know that I need you now
I know that nothing will bring us down
