The Birds Are Singing At Night

Through the dawning age

We go walkin' together

Toward the yawning grave

Burnin' days as we make our way

We'll leave our bones in the dust

An untold legend is lightin' 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

'Cause you'd hardly recognize the sight

Young are gettin' old and the summer is cold

All the birds have been singin' at night

When we're dead and gone

Will the mountains remember?

Or just carry on?

Movin' slow as the forest grows

And turn our bones into dust

An untold legend is lightin' up

When will I

Reach that light that I'm runnin' to?

When I die

Will it turn out forever?

There's a fire

Burnin' inside of me

When I die

Will I burn out forever?

You don't need to lie, I know it will

'Cause the darkness doesn't need the light

All the young are gettin' old and the summer is cold

And all the birds have been singin' at night

Well, you don't even try to save me, friend

'Cause I know it ain't worth the fight

All the young are gettin' old and the summer's cold

All the birds have been singin' at night
