Cold War Kids
Part of the Night
[Chorus]
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You've seen me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
[Verse 1]
I hate to get all emotional
This separation leaves us vulnerable
I'm so aware of what you must think of me
I used to have so many tricks up my sleeve
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Wish I could be the one who's shining, who's always on
But now the fear of day is driving to right my wrongs
[Chorus]
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You've seen me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
[Verse 2]
I guess you knew what you were getting into
I'm temperamental and a kind of recluse
But we defy any category
We set out, we set out to live two separate dreams
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Do your friends say I'm playing the artist card?
But they don't sympathize when it gets too hard
[Chorus]
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You've seen me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
[Bridge]
Careful not to overexpose
Do you remember what we started this for?
The image we made up is bigger than us
(So much bigger)
It was a vision built from the ground up
So it's ours to crush
[Chorus]
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You've seen me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You've seen me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
[Outro]
We are a part of the night
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
We are a part of the night
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
