Quiet After Dark

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Streetlights bleeding through the curtain

Another door I never opened stays shut

I trace the ceiling till it's certain

That morning's not a promise but a cut

Pre-Chorus

And the record spins its lonely sound

Wax and whiskey on the ground

Chorus

Sad nights keep me company

When the house forgets me

Sad nights when the ache runs deep

Wish somebody'd come and get me

Drop

Till the static fades away

Till the static fades away

Ooh

Verse 2

Phone glows cold beside the mattress

Every text I never sent is a ghost

I talk the walls into bad habits

Counting everything I lost the most

Pre-Chorus

And the room gets smaller every hour

Love turned sugar into sour

Chorus

Sad nights keep me company

When the house forgets me

Sad nights when the ache runs deep

Wish somebody'd come and get me

(Get me)

Bridge

Mm the kettle's gone quiet

Mm the candles burn low

My heart's still on riot

But nobody would know

(Nobody would know)

Chorus

Sad nights keep me company

When the house forgets me

Sad nights when the ache runs deep

Wish somebody'd come and get me

Outro

Sad nights

Sad nights

Ooh

Ooh
