Some nights I stay up cashing 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
And most nights I don't know anymore

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; (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?

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
and most nights, I don't know

Well, some nights I stay up cashing 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
And most nights I don't know anymore
