about

“In The Night” is the name of a poem written by Jack Hardy, the singer of Bexley’s granddad. Hanging on Amanda’s wall since she was a baby, the first two lines incepted her songwriting as this high-energy driving tune came to life. Sultry verse vocals, searing guitar tones, and banshee level screams will get you daydreaming about driving through the desert at 100mph, outlawed and free.

What started as a poem about a stuffed tiger causing nightmares, ended up being a raging song about running from the law and living life on the pulse of trouble.

lyrics

There’s a tiger in the corner
I can see it’s tooth and claw
And if you step out of line
You’ll end up in that big cats maw

Always flirting with the devil
Always picking the short straw
Drinking whisky from the bottle
While you’re running from the law

Hey, hey, hey, hey

In the night we seek out danger
In the shadows we will crawl
Better watch out for the stranger
Moonlit shadows on the wall

There’s a saying I prefer that
“Fortune favors the prepared”
Only fools will stop to linger
Oh come closer if you dare

Hey, hey
I’ve been running and running and running and running
Hey, hey
I’ve been running and running and running and running
Hey, I’m on the wrong side, nowhere left to hide
And now they’re coming, they’re coming, they’re coming, they’re coming
I’m on the wrong side, nowhere left to hide
And now they’re coming, they’re coming, coming to get me

I’ve been running, running, running for so long
I’ve been running, running, running for so long
I’ve been running, running, running for so long
I’ve been running, running, running for so long

There’s a tiger in the corner
Nowhere left to run and hide
Time to throw out your morality
and hold on for the ride

Hey, hey
I’ve been running and running and running and running
Hey, hey
I’ve been running and running and running and running
I’m on the wrong side, nowhere left to hide
And now they’re coming, they’re coming, they’re coming, they’re coming
Hey, I’m on the wrong side, nowhere left to hide
And now they’re coming, they’re coming, coming to get me
Hey, I’m on the wrong side, nowhere left to hide
And now they’re coming, they’re coming, they’re coming, they’re coming
I’m on the wrong side, nowhere left to hide
And now they’re coming, they’re coming, coming to get me

I’ve been running, running, running for so long
I’ve been running, running, running for so long
I’ve been running, running, running for so long
I’ve been running, running, running for so long
