[Verse 1]
Back at the corner
Visor full of rain
One knee low on asphalt
Feel that spark again
Engines in the distance
Names in the dark
We ride as a circle
One beat, one spark
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands on the bars
Heart on the line
We cut through the cold
Like a clean white sign
No one gets left
When the road goes wide
Stay with the pack now
Stay alive
[Chorus]
Night riders, night riders
We run this town
Night riders, night riders
Heads bowed down
Freedom in the turn
Love in the flame
Night riders, night riders
Say our name (night riders)
[Verse 2]
Chain-link voices calling
From the curbside boys
Mothers on the porches
Smiling at the noise
Old friend on the lookout
Young blood in the lead
Everybody's got a reason
Everybody's got a need
When the tires start singing
And the hours break thin
We don't ask for permission
We just let it in
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands on the bars
Heart on the line
We cut through the cold
Like a clean white sign
No one gets left
When the road goes wide
Stay with the pack now
Stay alive
[Chorus]
Night riders, night riders
We run this town
Night riders, night riders
Heads bowed down
Freedom in the turn
Love in the flame
Night riders, night riders
Say our name (night riders)
[Bridge]
If the world gets heavy
We lean into the bend
If the road gets lonely
We bring our friends
Every scar a signal
Every shout a thread
We ride for the living
We ride for the dead
[Final Chorus]
Night riders, night riders
We run this town
Night riders, night riders
Heads bowed down
Freedom in the turn
Love in the flame
Night riders, night riders
Say our name (night riders)
