The Birds Are Singing At Night - Lord Huron

Through the dawning age

We go walking together

Toward the yawning grave

Burning days as we make our way

We’ll leave our bones in the dust

An untold legend is lighting up

What if I was the last sight you ever saw

Would you die with a smile on your face

Well don’t even try to say you will

'Cause you’d hardly recognize the sight

The young are getting old and the summer is cold

All the birds have been singing at night

When we’re dead and gone

Will the mountains remember

Or just carry on

Moving as slow as the forest grows

And turn our bones into dust

An untold legend is lighting up

When will I reach that light that I’m running to

When I die

Will it turn out forever

There’s a fire burning inside of me

When I die

Will I burn out forever

You don’t need to lie, I know it will

'Cause the darkness doesn’t need the light

All the young are getting old and the summer is cold

And all the birds have been singing at night

Well, don’t even try to save me, friend

'Cause I know it ain’t worth the fight

All the young are getting old and the summer is cold

And all the birds have been singing at night
