Quarter Past Midnight

Bastille

Intro It's a quarter past midnight as we cut through the city (yeah, yeah, yeah) The streets are getting restless, good times, bad decisions (yeah, yeah) It's a quarter past midnight and the sirens are mending some hearts But we're the losers on the back seats singing "Love Will Tear Us Apart" It's a quarter past midnight, still avoiding tomorrow It's a quarter past midnight, but we're just getting going We keep on running, running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh This is my favorite part, oh Help me piece it all together darling Before it falls apart, oh Help me piece it all together It's a quarter past midnight and the speakers are blowing (yeah, yeah) We want the bodies on my billboards, not the lives underneath them (yeah, yeah, yeah) And now we're crawling up the walls again and it's a quarter past the world And you said we'd leave this place in dust and fall from heaven straight through hell We never know what we have, we never knew what we had We keep on running, running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh Why we always chasing after something Like we trying to throw our lives away Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh This is my favorite part, oh Help me piece it all together darling Before it falls apart, oh Help me piece it all together I can't remember, I can't remember I can't remember, I can't remember It's a quarter past midnight and the secrets are flowing Our lips are getting looser, I don't know what I'm saying We never knew what we had, never know what I've had We keep on running, running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh Why we always chasing after something Like we trying to throw our lives away Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh Away-ay-ay, away-ay-ay, oh oh This is my favorite parts, oh Help me piece it all together darling Before it falls apart, oh Help me piece it all together
