Rolo Tomassi
I Dread the Night
[Verse]
I'm going out tonight
Got an ache in my guts and my stomach's alight
So crack your fucking knuckles and straighten my spine
We are the night!
I'm going out tonight
Got a burning in my blood that just ain't right
Tear my fucking muscles while I watch the time
We are the night!

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm lying with my back to the floor
I ain't ever been in so much pain before
If I said I wasn't scared, I'd be a fucking liar
My body's burning like it's on fire
Sweating like I ain't before
First it was a cold, now it's a fever for sure
Forget singing, I can barely speak
I think I'm fucking dying, I can't breathe!

[Chorus]
And I want to be
Anyone in the world but me
Trapped in the body of a man defeated
I am the shame of mistakes repeated
And I want to be
Anyone in the world but me
Trapped in the body of a man defeated
I am the shame of mistakes repeated
[Verse]
I'm going out tonight
Got an ache in my guts and an my stomach's alight
So crack your fucking knuckles and straighten my spine
We are the night!
I'm going out tonight
Got a burning in my blood that just ain't right
So I'll tear my fucking muscles while I watch the time
We are the night!
We are the night!

[Bridge]
There will be no more grey
We have finished digging the grave
We are the new black
And we're as serious as a heart attack

[Breakdown]
We are the night
We are the night
We are the night!
We are the night!
We are the new black
And we're as serious as a heart attack
We are the night!
We are the night!
We are the new black
And we're as serious as a heart attack
[Chorus]
And I want to be
Anyone in the world but me
Trapped in the body of a man defeated
I am the shame of mistakes repeated
And I want to be
Anyone in the world but me
Trapped in the body of a man defeated
I am the shame of mistakes repeated
And I want to be, and I want to be
Trapped in the body of a man defeated
I am the shame of mistakes repeated

[Outro]
And I want to be
Anyone in the world but me
Trapped in the body of a man defeated
I am the shame of mistakes repeated
