Midnight
The foldI'm a different person every time we meet
I'm caught in a trap like a rabbit on a track
It's an angry attack, left a scar on my back
Here is my real sad story...
He was 5'6 with a sentimental crucifix
hanging down his neck
She was sweet sixteen in her first limousine
with his hand slipped around her back
They arrived on the scene
like the king & queen of the prom that couldn't last
did they ever really have a chance?
We are midnight, on a fast ride
Held a ticket in our hands for anywhere
Out of our minds, thought we could fly
As the morning comes we start to disappear
Why are we so quick to let our innocence go?
Nobody told me til it's only the lonely
A classic case, yeah a sorry story
And my story etches on...
She's a smart talking girl with a chip on her shoulder,
yeah she's got a little game to play
Meets a shell of a man in a rock n roll band
and he can't let her slip away
The only time they're satisfied
is when they're on the chase
Will we ever really get away?
We are midnight, we are last night
Got a ticket out of town with no return
We're on no time, we can't rewind
As the morning comes we start to disappear
We won't keep up with this pace another year
We are midnight, in a fist fight
We got a taste of what it's like to be alive
All alone now, don't wanna come down
But as the morning comes we start to disappear
Disappear...
So let it all ride
'Cause we are midnight.
