Take Back The Night

The sequel to Fallen kingdom

Closet full of secrets and skeletons awakes but nothing's true
I used to own a castle now it's boxes that I have to move
Right here in the darkness there's nothing left for me to do
It's easier to run away but today
Today we got to
Cast the shadows out from sight
A final stand a shouting cry
All the wrongs now turned to right
So fight the past
Take back the night
And call upon the torch tonight
To bring out all the ghosts to light
Because at last we have to go it's time
To take back the night
To take back the night
Being chased by monsters to face head on or be consumed
Reaching out for something grasping on to nothing to lose
Paybacks left too long unpaid but today
Today we got to
Cast the shadows out from sight
A final stand a shouting cry
All the wrongs now turned to right
So fight the past
Take back the night
And call upon the torch tonight
To bring out all the ghosts to light
Because at last we have to go it's time
To take back the night
To take back the night
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
To take back the night
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (To take back the night)
So fight the past, take back the night
Take back the night
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
To take back the night
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
And call upon the torch tonight
To bring out all the ghosts to light
Because at last we have to go it's time
To take back the night (whoa oh oh oh)

Take back our country

1. A rallying cry for people who think the United States has been "taken over" by anti-American socialists, foreigners, liberals, Marxists, minorities, etc.

The phrase is typically used by white male conservatives who oppose any type of change they perceive as a "threat" to their "way of life." Instead of providing a specific plan for improving the country or the government, they imply that the nation has been "kidnapped" by evil people who hate America and want to destroy freedom.

Unanswered questions: A) Who is "we"? B) Where do "we" want to take the country back to?

2. A phrase that implies our current government is somehow "illegitimate" despite the election of November 2008 when a majority of Americans voted for Obama and the current Congress.
ED: "We've got to take back our country. Otherwise those people in Washington will force our children to become Communist Muslim freedom-hating slaves of Obama. The rest of us will be forced to live in secret FEMA concentration camps. Just you wait and see!"

CINDY: "You've been watching Fox News again, haven't you?"

The instant take-back feeling

The feeling derived after suddenly saying something without thinking about it, therefore creating the desire to take back what you just said. Normally following with a slightly embarrassed, and guilty feeling.

Often this feeling occurs when one is trying to be funny, but many times what is said is either very stupid, or very rude. In most circumstances the speaker wonders why they even said it in the first place.

Sometimes, one can even get the instant take-back feeling for other people when they say something stupid.
STEVE: Well, god, Mia just broke up with me...

BOB: Mia was fat anyways

BOB: (Instant take-back feeling)

STEVE: Yeah...

BOB: Haha...um well, at least you can.. ya'know... date other girls and stuff now...

BOB: Sorry, I just got the instant take-back feeling...
