"Born At Night" lyrics

Out looking under rocks in the last of daylight
Pink and blue candy marbled skies
Out hunting shadows and only killing time
Darkness comes and without surprise

That patch of earth you're on has been claimed from you now
And as the future looms it unkindly grips your nerves
It's been watching the whole time and now your fears are confirmed
Prayers are for those with faith

But I was born at night
I was born at night
I was born at night
I was born at night

That bird stares you down with eyes bouncing off the moon
Says "If there's no room for cowards now, then who the fuck are you?
Whatever you came here for, you are leaving with the truth
Must have forgot my name"

But I was born at night
I was born at night
I was born at night
I was born at night
I was born at night
I was born at night

I'm starting to believe it wouldn't at all have mattered
If I hit all the right notes
