Before Midnight

Lyrics

You unlock your bike In the dark, dark night Jump on and ride away But you stop at the tracks Filled with angst and hope Its an Amtrak not a freight train You thank the stars its a passenger car And one of them looks and waves Are they headed to a better place? It's almost guaranteed There's nothing in the shadows As scary as what you see In the light of day So stay a little longer Nothing good happens Before midnight anyway This town at night seems to lose a light Every time were down a friend But the darker streets are fine with me I don't really want to see the end But the skin gets tough, these eyes adjust The more nocturnal I get Looks like they used to make things here Now it doesn't even make sense There's nothing in the shadows That's scary as what you see In the light of day So stay a little longer Nothing good happens Before midnight anyway And there's no way I can shake you Any warning from me Just laugh it away So sleep a little longer Nothing good happens In the morning anyway
