~#**************#~
Its a quarter past midnight
~#**************#~
As we cut through the city
~#**************#~
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the streets are getting restless
~#**************#~
Good times, bad decisions
~#**************#~
Yeah, yeah, yeah, its a quarter past midnight
~#**************#~
And the sirens are mending some hearts
~#**************#~
But were the losers on the back seats
~#**************#~
Singing “Love Will Tear Us Apart”
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Its a quarter past midnight
~#**************#~
Still avoiding tomorrow
~#**************#~
Its a quarter past midnight
~#**************#~
But were just getting going
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
We keep on running
~#**************#~
Running through a red light
~#**************#~
Like were trying to burn the night away
~#**************#~
Away-way, oh, away-way, oh
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
This is my favourite part, oh
~#**************#~
Help me piece it all together, darling
~#**************#~
Before it falls apart, oh
~#**************#~
Help me piece it all together
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Its a quarter past midnight
~#**************#~
And the speakers are blowing
~#**************#~
Yeah, yeah, we want the bodies on the billboards
~#**************#~
Not the lives underneath them
~#**************#~
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and now were crawling up the walls again
~#**************#~
And its a quarter past twelve
~#**************#~
And you said wed leave this place in dust
~#**************#~
And fall from heaven straight through hell
~#**************#~
We never know what we have
~#**************#~
We never knew what we had
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
We keep on running
~#**************#~
Running through a red light
~#**************#~
Like were trying to burn the night away
~#**************#~
Away-way, oh, away-way, oh
~#**************#~
Why are we always chasing after something
~#**************#~
Like were trying to throw our lives away?
~#**************#~
Away-way, oh, away-way, oh
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
This is my favourite part, oh
~#**************#~
Help me piece it all together, darling
~#**************#~
Before it falls apart, oh
~#**************#~
Help me piece it all together
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
(I cant remember, I cant remember
~#**************#~
I cant remember, I cant remember)
~#**************#~
Its a quarter past midnight
~#**************#~
And the secrets are flowing
~#**************#~
Our lips are getting looser
~#**************#~
I dont know what Im saying
~#**************#~
We never knew what we had
~#**************#~
I never know what Ive had
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
We keep on running
~#**************#~
Running through a red light
~#**************#~
Like were trying to burn the night away
~#**************#~
Away-way, oh, away-way, oh
~#**************#~
Why are we always chasing after something
~#**************#~
Like were trying to throw our lives away?
~#**************#~
Away-way, oh, away-way, oh
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
