Into The Night (Live)

Category: My Failed Music Career

Usually the second song in the set. I thought this was a generic throwaway. But, it went over well. So, we kept it. One of those “rebel” songs. You know…stand up for yourself blah blah…crap. I had a friend, who was in a “signed band,” compare us to RATT when he heard this. I think, at the time, we took it as a compliment. But, in hindsight, I think he was ripping us. Fun Fact: That friend, is now making a nice living as a Rod Stewart impersonator. So…yeah. Hi Jay!!!

Livin’ your life with your back to a wall
By someone else’s rules
The time has come for the walls to fall
And you’ve got to choose
Making your way, out on your own
An’ you’ve set your sights
You’ve gone off, and you’re on your own
In to the night

But don’t look back
Take a look to the future
Don’t turn back
Head straight for the light-and

Run off into the night
Shatter all your fears
Cos’ everything’s all right
So, wipe away those tears
Don’t be afraid of the dark
Cos’ tomorrow’s a brand new day
Then, you’ll make your mark
There is no one right way
There’s only your own way
Who says who makes the rules?

No. Not me.
Oh no, not me
I don’t make ’em up
Got to break ’em sometimes

Don’t let anyone tell you
How to live your life
You’re free…to do as you choose
And you know what’s right

But don’t look back
Take a look to the future
Don’t turn back
Head straight for the light-and

Run off into the night
Shatter all your fears
Cos’ everything’s all right
So, wipe away those tears
Don’t be afraid of the dark
You know, tomorrow’s a brand new day
Then, you’ll make your mark
There is no one right way
There’s only your own way
Who says you gotta choose?

Run off into the night
Shatter all your fears
Cos’ everything’s all right
So, wipe away those tears
Don’t be afraid of the dark
You know, tomorrow’s a brand new day
Then, you’ll make your mark
There is no one right way
There’s only your own way
Who says you gotta choose?
