Kings Of Convenience - Riot On An Empty Street Lyrics

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'll have no cards to play

And that's why
I've got nothing to say tonight
I've got nothing to say tonight
