Lyrics No Day So Long (No Night So Dark) - Young and Heartless

No Day So Long (No Night So Dark)

Last rounds of the night leaving downtown on 34
Roads are wet from the rain but tonight is crystal clear
A call comes in, he takes it, another hour is another dollar toward the family
trip
But it’s one of those nights, where you’re checking your watch and it always
stays the same
Every morning in this job you pray you never see a neck break.
Your head shakes
because you will
Never know what you are gonna know.
Until you go home, slip in another photo
with that family
That you barely even know
A two boy suicide pact, one pulled the trigger the other one didn’t have the
guts.
Standing there with
No tears left, his eyes open wide, his best friend with his face down
Four letter words are whispering behind his back.
The world keeps spinning on
The boy in the back of the squad car keeps mumbling to himself quietly,
but in my head he is talking to me
And in our conversation he says «If I can’t do it myself, at least give me some
help.
I know you think
You’re driving me home but my blood is on your hands
They say not everyone can do it the first time.
For some it’s a slow death
taking decades in dead end jobs
So tell me what’s it like to live a normal life?
Is it different when you’re older or do you just ignore it?
You said I would have my whole life to regret what I said.»
A two boy suicide pact, one pulled the trigger the other one didn’t have the
guts.
Standing there with
No tears left, his eyes open wide, his best friend with his face down
Four letter words are whispering behind his back.
The world keeps spinning on
«Hey pig I think you’ll figure it out someday.
It will be you against everyone
you’ve ever loved
I don’t regret a thing.»
(It will be you against everyone you never had the
time for)
