For the Night
Day by day we live for nothing
We wish the time away Until dusk comes out to play
As we say goodbye to the light
This city sleeps tonight, still we are wide awake
As shadows fall down from the walls they lead the paths we take
No sleep tonight we'll stay until the sun returns
Then we'll take it home an kep it going until the sunlight burns
Then we'll start again
Through bloodshot eyes we find our way
The streetlights seem as bright as day
As daylight dies, we come alive 'Cause we're living for the night
Familiar faces pass all around
Familiar voices are slowly drowned
This creeping darkness gets pierced by light
As shots start falling long into the night
We start to lose ourselves
The night consumes our hell
As the night grows cold it's still warm to us
As people start to leave this is home to us
So when it's time to say goodbye and rest our head and weary eyes
We know that tomorrow will bring so much pleasure and pain
Still we're yearning to start once again
Through bloodshot eyes we find our way Through bloodshot eyes we find our way
The streetlights seem as bright as day
As daylight dies, we come alive
'Cause we're living for the night
