School Night

(album: School Night - 2014)

Tomorrow is hours away
The night is still and my thoughts are gathered
So what do you say?
We know it's a school night what does it matter?

Meet me where the cars collect
Headlights dipping low, voices hushed and cold
We can help you to forget
Everything you've known, learning on your own
Sick of trading smiles for friends?
Getting older with nobody for you?
Looking for a place to spend
Everything you've been giving away?

And it may be a school night
But adrenaline is rushing at an all time high
So run with me in the streets in the dark

School night
But there's something 'bout a dangerous appetite
So run with me in the streets in the dark

Overhead a figure looms
Words reside in the back of your mind
We know this is all so new
Your old friends just used your time
We don't have to get up to no good
(Doing what's right, doing what you should)
They don't always align
We all have to breathe sometimes

And it may be a school night
But adrenaline is rushing at an all time high
So run with me in the streets in the dark

School night
But there's something 'bout a dangerous appetite
So run with me in the streets in the dark

There's something lonely about fitting in
Losing a part of yourself you liked to keep
You don't have to compromise with us
What would you be doing except losing sleep?

And it may be a school night
But adrenaline is rushing at an all time high
So run with me in the streets in the dark

School night
But there's something 'bout a dangerous appetite
So run with me in the streets in the dark
