Midnight Kids Songtext

von Neulore

We run this city once the lights go out
Wild and free roaming the streets downtown
We run this city and we won't back down
We take what we need
Here on the streets downtown

Midnight Kids is what we were
Some kind of bandits
I could think for hours and never understand it
How we got away with
Being so damn dangerous
We were so naive
To think that it could last
Under the overpass
That's where it started
Big stacks of broken glass
You know I hit my target
And when the punches landed
They caught me red handed
Back against the ropes
And desperate for a friend

We run this city once the lights go out
Wild and free roaming the streets downtown
We run this city and we won't back down
We take what we need
Here on the streets downtown

I was always trying to be
Some kind of hero
Never thought that ticking clock
Would up and turn to zero
Oh it's never ending
Just keep on pretending
I can ride the rebel train
And crash it softly
My heart, black as midnight
I see it clearly
I tried to rule the world
Yet no ones with me
Tell me was it worth it
If all I did was hurt ya
If I could only bend the time
And tell that kid who's singing

We run this city once the lights go out
Wild and free roaming the streets downtown
We run this city and we won't back down
We take what we need
Here on the streets downtown
Wild and free roaming the streets downtown
Chasing our dream
Trying to leave downtown
