Some Nights- Fun [Lyrics]

Thanks for watching my first video on this channel, and i don't own the music. This song Belongs to Fun.

Lyrics:

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 oh oh
What do I stand for? 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, who I, who I am, oh who am I, mm, mm

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? Oh 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!

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 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, ah (oh whoa, oh whoa, oh whoa, oh oh)

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, oh
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance, oh

The Song: Some Nights I stay up-
Me: CASHING IN MY BAD LUCK
The Demon Under my Bed: SOME NIGHTS I CALL IT A DRAW
*brief moment of silence as me and the demon stare at each other*
Me Hesitantly: Some nights, I wish my lips could build a castle..
The Demon: Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off..
Both of us at the same time: BUT I STILL WAKE UP, I STILL SEE YOUR GHOST

The worst part of war is you will never know if the enemy you killed was a good man.

[samanthadickerman]

The only song where autotune is completely accepted

[clovesevina]

"What do I stand for? Oh what do I stand for?"

Same.

[morganlahm]

Honestly this song just reminds me of finding yourself and who you are. Asking yourself what do you stand for and wondering how everyone else is finding themselves as well. Just being aware of that too. I also think it's about how when you get your dream career or if you are living your dream, the sacrifices you have to take to get there. This includes leaving friends and family, selling things, etc. Living your dream life requires a bunch of trade off decisions and sometimes, you fear that you'll regret some of your actions. You meet some great people while living your dream though and you're living it with them. So yeah that's just my perspective.

“My heart is breaking for my sister & 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.”

If you understand the story, these lyrics are absolutely beautiful. ❤️
