Lyrics Lord Huron – The Birds Are Singing At Night
Text:
Through the dawning age
We go walking together
Toward the yawning grave
Burning days as we make our way
An untold legend is lighting up
What if I was the last sight you ever saw,
Would you die with a smile on your face
Well don’t even try to say you will,
Because you’d hardly recognize the sight
The young are getting old and the summer is cold,
All the birds have been singing at night
When we’re dead and gone,
Will the mountains remember,
Or just carry on
Moving as slow as the forest grows
And turn our bones into dust,
An untold legend is lighting up
When will I reach that light that I’m running to,
When I die,
Will it turn out forever
There’s a fire burning inside of me,
When I die,
Will I burn out forever
You don’t need to lie, I know it will
Because the darkness doesn’t need the light
All the young are getting old and the summer is cold,
And all the birds have been singing at night
Well, don’t even try to save me, friend,
‘Cause I know it ain’t worth the fight.
And all the birds have been singing at night.
