Riot On An Empty Street Songtext
von Kings of Convenience

"Why, why so quiet?
Oh my, mysterious country singer?" she asked.

My life, it′s a riot
I'm climbing barricades
In empty streets at night.

When I′m down
Fighting shadows.
Twenty-five postcards
In a box in my room.


Telephone conversations,
Gas slowly leaking out
Of a heart-shaped balloon.


It's a dangerous game
That I'm not sure
If I could keep playing for long.
It′s a dangerous game,
It′s a very fine line
And if one step is wrong...
I have no cards to play
And that's why
I′ve got nothing to say,
Tonight.
I've got nothing to say,
Tonight.
