Lyrics of
Some Nights

Some Nights is a song by the band Fun., reflecting on war, identity, and the sacrifices made in pursuit of dreams and achievements. The lyrics reveal an internal struggle about the meaning of life and the challenges faced.

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.
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
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
I found a martyr in my bed tonight.
She stops my bones from wondering
Just who I am, who I am, who I am.
Yeah, oh who am I mmmm mmmmm
CHORUS again:

So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
When I hear songs, they sound like a swan.
So come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on!

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.
