This song is a collaboration in both lyrics and arrangement - we each wrote a verse, and the arrangement came together from a riff we stumbled on. The song was written in Coquitlam, BC in 2009-ish. The opening cinematic theme was composed in Logic by Adam in late 2015.
lyrics
People of... People of the Night...
They runnin' scared yeah they runnin' out of sight.
They looking for them broken windows, spare key and the lonely widow.
People of the Night...
Runnin' out of sight...
People of the Night...
Loose brains, yeah loose change...
Add it up and it means the same...
Idle threats, they've been flying around.
Careful baby - yeah you'll hit the ground.
People of... People of the Night...
They runnin' scared yeah they runnin' out of sight.
They're the People... the People of the Night..
Ten people stood in a row...
Smiles stretched and their heads hung low.
The blood red sky from the burning bush.
The final plunge... the final push.
People of the Night...
Runnin' out of sight...
People of the Night...
Runnin' out of sight...
