Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some nights I stay up, cashin' in my bad luck
Some nights, I'll call it a draw
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
That's alright (That's alright), I found a martyr in my bed tonight
It stops my bones from wonderin' just who I am, who I am
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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, anymore
Oh, oh oh
[Verse 7]
And this is it, guys, that is all, 5 minutes and I'm bored again
10 years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This one's not for the folks at home, sorry to leave, but I had to go
Nobody wants to die alone, all dried up in the desert sun
[Verse 8]
Some nights I stay up, cashin' in my bad luck
Some nights, I'll call it a draw
