The Night Lyrics
Disturbed
Lyrics
What has come over me?
What madness taken
Hold of my heart
To run away, the only answer
Pulling me away
To fall upon (the night)
The source of my recovery
Sweet shadow taking
Hold of the light
Another day
Has been devoured
Calling me away
Begging a question why
For saving me from
All they've taken
Letting my armor fall again
Giving me the strength
To face them
Feeling it taking over
Now on a path
To take it all away
There can be
No better way of knowing
In a world beyond controlling
Are you gonna deny
The saviour in front of your eyes?
Stare into the night
Power beyond containing
Are you going to remain a slave
For the rest of your life?
Give in to the night
This self discovery
Redemption taking
Hold of my mind
A serenade of haunting voices
Calling me away
To feast upon (the night)
The source of my felicity
Dark maiden
Taking hold of my hand
Lead me away
From hibernation
Strong and unafraid
Never a question, why?
For saving me from
All they've taken
Letting my armor fall again
Giving me the strength
To face them
Feeling it taking over
Now on a path
To take it all away
There can be
No better way of knowing
In a world beyond controlling
Are you gonna deny
The saviour in front of your eyes?
Stare into the night
Power beyond containing
Are you going to remain a slave
For the rest of your life?
Give in to the night
Give in to the night
In a world beyond controlling
Are you gonna deny
The saviour in front of your eyes?
Stare into the night
Power beyond containing
Are you gonna remain a slave
For the rest of your life?
Give in to the night
Night
Night
Night
Give in to the night
Night
Night
Night
Give in to the night,
Give in to the night
Song & Lyrics Facts
Disturbed's "The Night" was released on October 7, 2008 as part of the album Indestructible. The song was written by Dan Donegan, Mike Wengren, John Moyer and David Draiman, who are all members of the band Disturbed.
This hard rock anthem is about a man coming to terms with his own mortality. The lyrics express a sense of hopelessness in the face of death and an acceptance that it will eventually take us all. The chorus encourages listeners to make the most of the time they have left, singing “We’ll live until the night/Take it away, take it away.”
