When the Night Falls Quiet - Birds Of Tokyo

We are cast out

We are facing cold connections

Blindsided

When the ash clouded our vision

In a war between many

So few had won their placement

And I knew that it mattered

When lines formed and ties were broken

Oh when the night falls quiet

You’re fearing that the wars begun

Cos we’re all in this riot

The sirens and bells have sung

Don’t spend your last day waiting

Feeling you’re the only one

Cos we’re all in this riot

We riot as one

Our horizon

Is a picture card disaster

When the light faded

And the ink ran like a river

If we pause for one second

To catch our own reflection

We’d be caught in the middle

With no time to find forgiveness

Oh when the night falls quiet

You’re fearing that the wars begun

Cos we’re all in this riot

The sirens and bells have sung

Don’t spend your last day waiting

Feeling you’re the only one

Cos we’re all in this riot

We riot as one

On the front line

I can hear a faint rehearsal

Of the last play

Where the young cry role reversal

Oh when the night falls quiet

You’re fearing that the wars begun

Cos we’re all in this riot

The sirens and bells have sung

Don’t spend your last day waiting

Fearing you’re the only one

Cos we’re all in this riot

We riot as one
