Take me far from this place,
Take me away from here.
Wrap me in your arms.
Hold me close, my dear.

Countdown To Midnight
03:16
|

The days are short and the nights are long,
the sound of your voice is my favorite song.
I know it's late, but can't you see?
I need you and you need me.
Put everything aside and everything will all be
alright because you know.
I'll never let you go.
(Chorus:)
And this night will soon come alive.
You and me, we'll soon surely see:
That everything and everyone was wrong.
And we were meant to be.
I need glasses cause you're out of sight,
bathed in the glow of the pale moonlight.
And right now I've got plenty on my mind.
But, it's okay! Cause I'm with you.
This world's a lie, but you're my truth.
And that is all we need
to break these chains and set us free.
(Chorus again, obviously.)
Countdown to midnight as we carry on;
how could we have waited for so long?
Take my hand, we'll never look back,
walk in the night as it fades to black.
Countdown to midnight as we carry on
They'll take it all, unless we stand up strong.
Although we are alone here,
there's nothing left for us to fear.
Countdown to midnight as we carry on;
the sun has faded and the light is gone.
But, even though I can barely see,
you still look beautiful me.

Interlude (1.0)

a whole bunch of inane nonsense.

And lately I sense,
these feelings won't last.
Maybe it's something about our past.
That's got you holding back on what we used to have.
If only I could make you see,
you are the one I need;
to get out of this wretched place that we call home.
(Chorus:)
And I know it just goes to show that we need hope.
And maybe if I say,
"would you stay with me?"
So we could live in peace and harmony.
Remember the time we jumped the fences on that resort lawn?
Thinking our lives were set.
And it all was for the best?
But you took all our hopes and all our dreams
and threw it away in one whole sick scene;
leaving nothing but just the memory.
(Chorus; again)

Winter's almost over; spring is finally here.
But, I still feel colder, than I did last year.
Somehow I'm still standing, despite this heavy heart.
Yet these daydreams of my future are tearing me apart.
At least the past is past, let's pray the best will come.
Even though my heart's fucked up, I can't say that I'm done.
Chorus:
I'm going to take my chances and fight,
or else go down with this ship.
I see the sharks all around me and blood in the water;
And I don't think I can swim .
My friends aren't doing better, but hell, they could be worse.
Drowning in their own concerns; we all might just be cursed.
Kevin hopes the rent will pay itself in the end.
Reef is completely fucked, he'll never have a girlfriend.
We've got to keep our heads held high, and pray we'll pull through.
It just might be a stretch, but what else can we do?
Chorus 2:
We're going to take our chances tonight,
Cause if we keep sinking, we're dead.
But, despite our best wishes, we'll sleep with the fishes.
I think we're in over our heads.
