Darling, we stayed up all night
Hearts drowned in the hollow light
And sank down where rotten birds did dive, dive, dive
Driving keeps me up at night
Cars sound like a ruined choir
And all the songs on God's radio were white noise
National people's scare was alive
Roads carved the country bare, so goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye
Darling, we stayed up all night
Hearts drowned in the hollow sky
And sank down where rotten birds dive, dive, dive
Driving keeps me up at night
Cars sound like a ruined choir
And all the songs of God's radio were white noise
National people's scare was alive
Roads carved the country bare, so goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye
