Night Rolls Around

Another day, another shot at mercy
One more chance to get it right
So many questions when the answers are few
So many people looking for the light

But the sun's still shining outside
And I'm still along for the ride
And if I play my cards right
I'll be here when the night rolls around...

One more heartbreak, one more promise gone
Just another round in the fight
Only so much of me to go around
Everybody wants a bite

A frozen moment on a tightrope walk
You try to hold on to what you can
The planet shakes, and the rain falls down
As we navigate this ever-shifting sand..

So you cast a shadow, you make some noise
Try to make your mark in this world
Better break some rules if the rules don’t seem right
But do not go quietly with your flag unfurled

'Cause the sun's still shining outside
And you're still along for the ride
And if you play your cards right
You'll be here with the night rolls around
