Well it rains and it pours when you're out on your own If I crash on the couch can I sleep in my clothes? 'cause I've spent the night dancing I'm drunk I suppose If it looks like I'm laughing I'm really just asking to leave This alone you're in time for the show You're the one that I need I'm the one that you loathe You can watch me corrode Like a beast in repose 'cause I love all the poison Away with the boys in the band I've really been on a bender and it shows So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?
I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.

[...] being human is being a young child on Christmas Day who receives and absolutely magnificent castle. And there is a perfect photograph of this castle on the box and you want more than anything to play with the castle and the knights and the princesses because it looks like such a perfect human world, but the only problem is that the castle isn't built. It's in tiny intricate pieces, and although there's a book of instructions you don't understand it. And nor can your parents or Aunt Sylvie. So you are just left, crying at the ideal castle on the box which no one would ever be able to build.
You'll never be alone When darkness comes I'll light the night with stars Hear my whispers in the dark You'll never be alone When darkness comes You know I'm never far Hear my whispers in the dark
O wild and wondrous midnight, There is a might in thee To make the charmed body Almost like spirit be, And give it some faint glimpses Of immortality.

How did it get so late so soon? It's night before it's afternoon. December is here before it's June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?
I am not a graceful person. I am not a Sunday morning or a Friday sunset. I am a Tuesday 2am, I am gunshots muffled by a few city blocks, I am a broken window during February. My bones crack on a nightly basis. I fall from elegance with a dull thud, and I apologize for my awkward sadness. I sometimes believe that I don’t belong around people, that I belong to all the leap days that didn’t happen. The way light and darkness mix under my skin has become a storm. You don’t see the lightning, but you hear the echoes.
I'm an angel with a shotgun, fighting 'til the war's won, I don't care if heaven won't take me back, I'll throw away my faith, baby, just to keep you safe. Don't you know you're everything I have? And I, wanna live, not just survive, tonight.
No matter how good things are, there will always be solitary nights you spend in your bedroom, in a car, or in a party full of your closest friends when it feels like the walls are caving in.
When you're little, night time is scary because there are monsters hiding right under the bed. When you get older the monsters are different. Self doubt, Loneliness, Regret. And though you may be older and wiser, you still find yourself scared of the dark.
People make fun of a guy who stays at home every night doing nothing. But the truth is: that guy is a genius. Because let's be honest: Sitting around watching TV, drinking beer and eating ribs alone is what every red-blooded American would rather be doing at all times.
I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?
I wonder if I've been changed in the night? Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is 'Who in the world am I?' Ah, that's the great puzzle!
So tonight I'm calling all astronauts All the lonely people that the world forgot If you hear my voice come pick me up Are you out there? 'Cause you're all I've got...
You say good morning when it's midnight Going out of my head, alone in this bed I wake up to your sunset And it's drivin' me mad, I miss you so bad And my heart heart heart is so jetlagged
I feel like dancin' tonight I'm gonna party like it's my civil right It doesn't matter where I don't care, if people stare 'cause I feel like dancin' tonight
Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up I need your loving hands to come and get me up And every night I miss you I can just look up And know the stars are holding you, holding you, holding you tonight!
Follow your heart like a flying stallion, race with the sun to the edge of night. Form your truth like a gold medallion, dance in the circle of the love and the light.
And if I could stop the clocks, If I could make this moment mine. I'd make the most of a bad time. I wish I could stop the clocks and wash away those lies. It's all that I could wish for tonight.
It takes the night to make it dawns And takes a day to make you yawn, brother It takes some old to make you young It takes some cold to know the sun It takes the one to have the other
And it takes no time to fall in love But it takes you years to know what Love is It takes some fears to make you trust It takes those tears to make it rust It takes some dust to have it polish
Take my hand tonight Let's not think about tomorrow Take my hand tonight We can find some place to go Cause our hearts are locked forever And our love will never die Take my hand tonight One last time
I know it's late, I know you're weary I know your plans don't include me Still here we are, both of us lonely Longing for shelter from all that we see Why should we worry, no one will care girl Look at the stars so far away We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow? We've got tonight - Why don' t we stay?
They told me there was nothing out there, nothing to fear. But the night my parents were murdered I caught a glimpse of something. I've looked for it ever since. I went around the world, searched in all the shadows. And there is something out there in the darkness, something terrifying, something that will not stop until it gets revenge. Me.
I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never alone at all. And that, of course, is the message of Christmas. We are never alone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the world seemingly most indifferent. For this is still the time God chooses.
Home is behind - the world ahead and there are many paths to tread through shadow, to the edge of night until the stars are all alight mist and shadow, cloud and shade all shall fade. All shall fade.
Somebody get me through this nightmare I can't control myself
So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever change this animal I have become Help me believe it's not the real Me Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street? Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep? What do you feel when you look in the mirror? Are you proud?
Alcohol is a very necessary article ... It makes life bearable to millions of people who could not endure their existence if they were quite sober. It enables Parliament to do things at eleven at night that no sane person would do at eleven in the morning.

A day's work is a day's work, neither more nor less, and the man who does it needs a day's sustenance, a night's repose and due leisure, whether he be painter or ploughman.

Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars – points of light and reason. And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.
I wish for this night-time To last for a lifetime The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea Oh how I wish to Go down with the sun Sleeping, weeping With you
I know I wasn’t there, when you needed me the most I know I didn’t care, and was afraid to get so close Tonight it’s getting hard to fall asleep Cause it's becoming clear that I broke all into pieces And I can not reverse it, so I’ve got one more thing to say
I’m sorry for your pain I’m sorry for your tears For all the little things I didn’t know I’m sorry for the words I didn’t say But what I still do I’m still lovin you
