Lyrics The Only Heirs - Local Natives

The Only Heirs

The sun, it hasn’t set yet
It’s just gone behind the hill
We take the waning minutes
And wonder how and if we will
Keep all the lights off
It’s bright enough for now
You mock my color blindness
But even I could tell
Are you?
Am I?
We were, now we are the only heirs
We were, now we are the only heirs
Are you?
Am I?
We were, now we are the only heirs
We were, now we are the only heirs
Behind the jungle backdrop
The orange and green and pink
The kind and smiling waitress asks what you need to drink
The pilot lets the wheel go
These things can fly themselves
The less you do, the better
When the wind begins to wail
Are you?
Am I?
We were, now we are the only heirs
We were, now we are the only heirs
Are you?
Am I?
We were, now we are the only heirs
We were, now we are the only heirs
You want a battle, look, you’re leaning on the railing
I know an answer, just don’t wanna know the ending
Let’s live alone together, far from everything
I hear him howling, I hear him howling
You want a battle, look, you’re leaning on the railing
I know an answer, just don’t wanna know the ending
Let’s live alone together, far from everything
I hear him howling, I hear him howling
Are you?
Am I?
We were, now we are the only heirs
We were, now we are the only heirs
