Some Nights
Some nights I sit alone
Staring into black
Nothing but my thoughts
To fill the air
Images of all I've lost
Lovers and the friends
Chances that I took
That went nowhere

Same set of problems that
Have held me tight for years
Always
One step up
And two steps back
I wanna get to where I’m going
Tired of the road
I got ten thousand miles behind me
And one more to go

How has all this time slipped past
Never to return
What's been the point of all this pain
Never saw myself a victim of circumstances but
Maybe we're just pawns in someone’s game
Same set of problems that
Have held me tight for years
Always
One step up
And two steps back
I wanna get to where I'm going
Tired of the road
I got ten thousand miles behind me
And one more to go

I can show the whole world a smile
Sick of seeing stars be so untrue
Shining when they want to but then falling from the sky
Turning into shadows as they do

Same set of problems that
Have held me tight for years
Always
One step up
And two steps back
I been
Putting on this face too long
I'm tired of the show
I got ten thousand miles behind me
And one more to go
