    Out under the stars

    Dodging them night cars baby

    Cause when you gotta move, you gotta move

    Whatever that it was

    You were thinking of lady

    You''re certainly not thinking

    Of it now,



    And nightbirds sing you

    And empty tune

    In an empty house

    In an empty room

    In an empty moment

    All the nightbirds sing

    We were suppose to rise above

    But we sink



    I feel like a body stuffed into a trunk

    From a million years

    Of lying and getting drunk



    The people here inside me

    They are loud and in the night

    They scream and smash the windows

    And they fight



    And nightbirds sing you

    And empty tune

    In an empty house

    In an empty room

    With an empty feelings

    When it comes too soon

    Were supposed to rise above

    But we sink

    Into the sea
