King Of The Night

Lyrics

KING OF THE NIGHT [Intro — Whispered] Lights go black, let the city breathe Leather on, got the world on its knees I don't chase, baby, I arrive One look from me and the dead come alive [Verse 1] Midnight dripping from the neon signs Your eyes locked hard when they landed on mine Pretty little danger in a tailored black suit You came looking for trouble— Baby, trouble found you I've got a crown made of broken hearts A little bit holy, a little fucked up from the start You can call me wicked, call me what you like But when the sun goes down, I'm the reason you stay up all night [Pre-Chorus] I don't need permission I don't need your throne I built this kingdom From the nights I owned So turn up the bass Let the whole room shake If you're looking for a king— Baby, make no mistake [Chorus] I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! Crown shining underneath the flashing lights I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! Got the boys losing their minds tonight Black heart, bad boy, dressed in sin When the darkness calls, I let it in Raise your glass, let the whole world know— I'm the KING, KING, KING OF THE NIGHT! [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh-oh, everybody bow Oh-oh-oh, I'm ruling now Oh-oh-oh, feel that heat King of the night— Get down at my feet! [Verse 2] You walked in with your dangerous smile Trying to play innocent for a little while But I saw that hunger hiding underneath You wanna taste the danger? Come closer to me Red lips, black boots, heartbeat racing Two bad boys and the whole club staring No shame, no fear, no alibi We're painting the town Under a violet sky [Pre-Chorus] I don't need salvation I've already been reborn Every scar's a medal Every night I've worn So turn up the bass Let the whole room shake If you're looking for a king— Baby, make no mistake [Chorus] I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! Crown shining underneath the flashing lights I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! Got the boys losing their minds tonight Black heart, bad boy, dressed in sin When the darkness calls, I let it in Raise your glass, let the whole world know— I'm the KING, KING, KING OF THE NIGHT! [Gay Anthem Hook — Big & Catchy] Boys to the left, boys to the right Everybody's getting wild tonight Hands in the air, don't hide your pride We came to live, not apologize! K-I-N-G! That's who you're looking at K-I-N-G! Baby, remember that K-I-N-G! When I walk into the light— Everybody knows I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! [Bridge — Dark / Atmospheric] When daylight comes, I disappear But you can still feel me when I'm nowhere near I'm the whisper underneath your skin The little voice telling you, "Let the darkness in." No prince charming No fairytale I don't need heaven When I rule this hell [Breakdown] Lights out! Bass loud! Everybody scream! Black crown! Head high! Living out the dream! Who's the king? ME! Who's the king? ME! Who's gonna own this city tonight? ME! ME! ME! [Final Chorus — Huge] I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! Crown shining underneath the flashing lights I'm the KING OF THE NIGHT! Got the boys losing their minds tonight Black heart, bad boy, dressed in sin When the darkness calls, I let it in Raise your glass, let the whole world know— I'm the KING, KING, KING OF THE NIGHT! [Outro] When the sun comes up, don't say my name Tonight was ours, and we played the game Keep your secrets underneath the moonlight— You know who I am... The King. The King. The King of the Night.
