In October last year, Ben Abraham and I sat down to write a song like we usually do. This was pre-US election so there was a lot of tension in the air. Trump had promised a muslim ban if he were to be elected and honestly at the time, I believed that the US could elect someone like him so everything...
[Verse 1]
There was something in the fallout
Ain't it funny how the wind blows?
We give them something to talk about
And they're locking up their windows
And even when the night hits
All of the lights have got us running
We ain't got to be reckless
But you'll never stop coming
[Pre-Chorus]
All our friends are watching us
How did it become so serious?
Something in the air is dangerous
Everybody here is watching us
[Chorus]
We're just bodies, we're just bodies in the night
Move your bodies, move your bodies in the light
Trust nobody, trust nobody in the fight
We're just bodies, we are bodies in the night
[Post-Chorus]
Bodies in the night
We are bodies in the night
[Verse 2]
Telling us to let go
Saying the uprising ain't right
But this is for us, what do they know?
And we could do it all night
[Pre-Chorus]
All our friends are watching us
How did it become so serious?
Something in the air is dangerous
Everybody here is watching us
[Chorus]
We're just bodies, we're just bodies in the night
Move your bodies, move your bodies in the light
Trust nobody, trust nobody in the fight
We're just bodies, we are bodies in the night
[Post-Chorus]
We are bodies in the night
Bodies in the night
We are bodies in the night
[Bridge]
All our friends are watching us
How did it become so serious?
Something in the air is dangerous
Everybody here is watching us
All our friends are watching us (watching us)
How did it become so serious? (serious)
Something in the air is dangerous (dangerous)
Everybody here is watching us
[Chorus]
We're just bodies, we're just bodies in the night
Move your bodies, move your bodies in the light
Trust nobody, trust nobody in the fight
We're just bodies, we are bodies in the night
[Post-Chorus]
We are bodies in the night
We are bodies in the night
Bodies in the night
[Outro]
We are bodies in the night
