Bring Me the Night Lyrics by Overkill

Ironbound

2010

[Intro]
Here we go

[Verse 1]
I never cared too much
Acquired mental health
I let my reputation
Speak just for itself

[Post-Verse]
For itself

[Verse 2]
I never liked the rules
That came 'long with the game
Take me back to where
The whisper knows my name

[Chorus 1]
Ready to fly, and I'm ready to die
Scare the angel, fly away
Let the devil have his way
Tie your tongue into a knot
And pray to God it never stops
Ready to fly, and I'm ready to die
Fuel me up, let me go
Shut your mouth; I'm gonna blow
Hold your ears and shield your eyes
Just a word now to the wise

[Chorus 2]
(And) Bring me the night
Bring me the night
(And) Bring me the night
Bring me the night

[Verse 3]
Electric hammered, run over
Knocked around
I won't stay
Laying on the ground

[Post-Verse]
On the ground

[Verse 4]
Take the action
It's no good for me
Call it addiction
Call it what you please

[Post-Verse]
Please, please, please...

[Chorus 1]
Ready to fly, and I'm ready to die
Scare the angel, fly away
Let the devil have his way
Tie your tongue into a knot
And pray to God it never stops
Ready to fly, and I'm ready to die
Fuel me up, let me go
Shut your mouth; I'm gonna blow
Hold your ears and shield your eyes
Just a word now to the wise

[Chorus 2]
(And) Bring me the night
Bring me the night
(And) Bring me the night
Bring me the night

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Can you see me flying freely?
Can you see me flying freely?
Can you see me?
Can you see me?
Can you see me flying freely?
Can you see me?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 1]
Ready to fly, and I'm ready to die
Scare the angel, fly away
Let the devil have his way
Tie your tongue into a knot
And pray to God it never stops
Ready to fly, and I'm ready to die
Fuel me up, let me go
Shut your mouth; I'm gonna blow
Hold your ears and shield your eyes
Just a word now to the wise

[Chorus 2]
(And) Bring me the night
Bring me the night
(And) Bring me the night
Bring me the night

[Outro]
Bring me the night
Bring me the night
Bring me the night
Bring me the (Night)
