The Nighttime Is Our Time Lyrics

It's nights like these
that we forget about everything
that you've ever done

you are the barrel between my teeth
the blood stains on the sheets
your everything I need
your everything I need

Tonight's the night
we'll set this on fire
right before your eyes
This time we'll get it right

It's days like these that we loose all hope
But the best is yet to come
And I know we're better off
we're better off alone

Tonight's the night
we'll set this on fire
right before your eyes
This time we'll get it right

The nighttime is our time
The nighttime is our time

Tonight's the night
we'll set this on fire
right before your eyes
This time we'll get it right
Tonight's the night
we'll set this on fire
right before your eyes
This time we'll get it right

Why 6 is afraid of 7

City In A Snow Globe

You Talk A Good Game

Close Your Eyes.... It's Okay To Rest Now

Because 7 ate 9

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Generally, it looks like that they are confessing that they have made mistakes in life, and they want to let God know that they still believe and love him and they repent for thei sins. "It's days like these that we loose all hope But the best is yet to come And I know we're better off" We're better off alone I think in that part, they are saying some days the world just takes them away from God, including people. Ex,: people that constantly break commandments and turn away from God. But they still love our heavenly father and that they're better off alone without other people, and just live under God's love.
