Nightlife
We used to ask where the power came from
And when it would go out
What would we do when it got dark?
Hold candles to our doubts
On the first day of school, you stopped holding my hand
The day the streets opened wide
Stole my letters, talked you out and inside
But you loved the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife never seemed to suit you
So I found someone else to ask my questions to
With eyes like candles on the wall, a flash of cobalt blue
And he wasn't quite like you, until he ran away
I left my coat by the stairs, you didn't notice I had nothing to say
But you love the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife, it never seemed to suit you
Oho-ho-oho-uh
Was it too dull for you?
Was it too dull for you?
I would have carved these brittle bones
If you'd asked me to
But you love the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife, it never seemed to suit you
Oho-ho-woh-oh
You love the nightlife
You love the nightlife
You love the nightlife
But will it ever love you?
And when it would go out
What would we do when it got dark?
Hold candles to our doubts
On the first day of school, you stopped holding my hand
The day the streets opened wide
Stole my letters, talked you out and inside
But you loved the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife never seemed to suit you
So I found someone else to ask my questions to
With eyes like candles on the wall, a flash of cobalt blue
And he wasn't quite like you, until he ran away
I left my coat by the stairs, you didn't notice I had nothing to say
But you love the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife, it never seemed to suit you
Oho-ho-oho-uh
Was it too dull for you?
Was it too dull for you?
I would have carved these brittle bones
If you'd asked me to
But you love the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife, it never seemed to suit you
Oho-ho-woh-oh
You love the nightlife
You love the nightlife
You love the nightlife
But will it ever love you?
