Up At Night - Terrible Things

People ask am I scared

Am I so sure? Am I prepared?

But that’s not what keeps me up at night

People say that I must be dumb

If I let you down well i’m sorry son

But that’s not what keeps me up at night

No that’s not what keeps me up at night

I’ve been trying for eight hours

In and out for maybe two

Now the sun is at my window

Where were you?

Burning, Burning bright

Our eyes wide open

I bet you could see our town from space, that night

People talk like I should have stayed

Should have played those cards

But I played it out in my head

And I might as well have end up dead

Yeah I might as well be somebody else

And you could take my place instead

I’ve been trying for eight hours

In and out for maybe two

Now the sun is at my window

Where were you?

Burning, Burning bright

Our eyes wide open

I bet you could see our town from space, that night

We keep on all the lights

We keep them burning bright

The fires they return, They couldn’t tell us why

Why we keep on all the light, That’s what keeps me up at night

I bet you could see our little town

Burning bright

I bet you could see our little town

Burning bright

I want to go back there

I bet you could see our little town

Burning

I want to go back

That’s not what keeps me up at night

That’s not what keeps me up at night

I want to go back there

That’s not what keeps me up at night

I want to go back there
