Lyrics for Something in the Night

Well,I'm riding down Kingsley Figuring I'll get a drink Well I turn the radio up loud So I don't have to think Then I take her to the floor Looking for a moment when the world seems right And I tear into the guts Of something in the night Well, you're born with nothing And better off that way Soon as you've got something they send Someone to try and take it away Well you can ride this road 'til dawn Without another human being in sight They're just kids wasted on Something in the night Well, nothing is forgotten or forgiven When it's your last time around Well, I got stuff running 'round my head That I just can't live down When we found the things we loved Were crushed and dying in the dirt We tried to pick up the pieces And get away without getting hurt But they caught us at the state line Burned our cars in one last fight And left us running, burned and blind Chasing something in the night
