It's a quarter
past midnight
as we cut
through the city
Yeah, yeah, yeah
the streets
are getting restless
good times, bad decisions
Yeah, yeah, yeah
it's a quarter
past midnight
and the sirens
are mending some hearts
But we're the losers
on our back seats
singing love
will tear us apart
It's a quarter
past midnight
still we're fighting
tomorrow, it's a quarter
past midnight but
we're just getting going
We keep on running
running through a red light
like we're trying to burn
the night away, away
away, oh away, away oh
This is my favourite part
oh help me piece it
all together darling
before it falls apart oh
help me piece it
all together
It's a quarter
past midnight
and the speakers
are blowing
Yeah, yeah
we want the bodies
on the billboards
not the lives
underneath them
And now we're crawling
up the walls again
And it's a quarter
past twelve
And you said we'd leave
this place in dust
And fall from heaven
straight through hell
we never know
what we have
We never knew
what we had
We keep on running
running through a red light
like we're trying
to burn the night away
away, away, oh away
away oh
Why are we always
chasing after something
like we're trying
to throw our lives away
away, away, oh away
away oh
This is my favourite part
oh help me piece it
all together darling
before it falls apart oh
help me piece it
all together
It's a quarter
past midnight
and the secrets
are flowing
Our lips are getting looser
I don't know
what I'm saying
we never knew
what we had
I never know
what I've had
We keep on running
running through a red light
like we're trying
to burn the night away
away, away, oh away
away oh
Why are we always
chasing after something
like we're trying
to throw our lives away
away, away, oh away
away oh
This is my favourite part
oh help me piece it
all together darling
before it falls apart oh
help me piece it
all together
