Some Nights - Favorite Star

Written by：Jeff Bhasker/Andrew Dost/Jack Antonoff/Nate Ruess

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

Whoa oh oh what do I stand for

Whoa oh oh what do I stand for

Most nights I don't know anymore

Oh whoa oh whoa oh whoa oh oh

Oh whoa oh whoa oh whoa 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

That's alright

I found a martyr in my bed tonight

Stops my bones from wondering just who I am

Who I am who I am

Oh who am I mmm mmm

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

Whoa oh oh what do I stand for

Whoa oh oh what do I stand for

Most nights I don't know any more

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

Well 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 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 ah

Oh whoa oh whoa oh whoa oh oh

Oh whoa oh whoa oh whoa 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 yeah

It's for the best you didn't listen

It's for the best we get our distance yeah
