Lyrics
There is a place where the losers win
There is a location where those who often lose in life find success.
A port of call for desperate men
A destination for people in desperate situations, possibly seeking refuge or opportunity.
It is known by many names
Known by various names, implying its mysterious and multifaceted nature.
We come and go but it remains
People come and go from this place, but it endures over time.
Nobody cares, nobody cries
Indifference and lack of empathy prevail; no one cares or sheds tears.
If you're scared or if you die
Fear or death doesn't elicit sympathy or concern.
That's the way it goes
Describing the harsh reality of life where things unfold without mercy.
You should know
Advising awareness and understanding of this harsh reality.
You're in the place they call the night-side
Referring to a dangerous area known as the night-side.
In the shadows where the killers and the pirates hide

Stick around if you think you can survive
Suggesting that survival is challenging, but staying is an option for the brave.
In the city on the night-side
Reiterating the dangerous setting of the city on the night-side.
Running scared through endless night
Portraying a sense of perpetual fear and unease in the endless night.
Too afraid to put up a fight
Individuals are too frightened to resist or confront their challenges.
They shackle her wrists
Describing the capture and restraint of a person.
It's too late to resist
Resistance is futile; the situation has progressed too far.
Scanned for weapons and transmitters
Subjected to scrutiny for potential threats or communication devices.
Sold at auction to the highest bidder
The person is auctioned off to the highest bidder, suggesting a commodification of individuals.
That's the way it goes
Emphasizing the inevitability and harshness of the situation.
Now you know
Encouraging acknowledgment and acceptance of the harsh reality.
You can find us on the night-side
Reiterating the presence of a dangerous area known as the night-side.
In the shadows where the killers and the pirates hide
Describing again the hidden world where criminals thrive.
Come around if you think you can survive
Inviting those brave enough to try and survive in this perilous city.
In the city on the night-side
Stressing the danger and challenges of the city on the night-side.
You can find us on the night-side
Repeating the existence of the hazardous night-side.
In the shadows where the killers and the pirates hide
Reiterating the presence of criminals and pirates in the shadows.
Come around if you think you can survive
Encouraging those bold enough to attempt survival in this perilous place.
