The Streets Were Quiet

from H​/​B​/​S by Hiding Behind Sound

lyrics

the stars aligned
just in the knick of time
the streets were quiet
the crickets chimed their song
i was smoking
you were waiting inside
and if i didn't have to
i would never say goodnight

can you remember what i said
a whisper in your ear
when we first met
there's a hurricane in my head

maybe it's not so bad
when we have what we have

it pulls
but even so
i will land
wherever i'm thrown

can you see shadows in the dark
can you find me
before we're torn apart
before it ups and goes
all that i have come to know

maybe it's not so bad
when we have what we have

it pulls
but even so
i will land
wherever i'm thrown
