Lyrics

[00:01.42] The Airborne Toxic Event - Sometime Around Midnight
[00:12.79]
[00:44.13]
[00:47.91] And it starts...
[00:51.18] sometime around midnight
[00:55.48] or at least that's when
[00:57.89] you lose yourself
[00:59.04] for a minute or two
[01:01.40]
[01:03.13] As you stand...
[01:06.64] under the barlights
[01:10.76] and the band plays some song
[01:13.22] about forgetting yourself for a while
[01:18.26] and the piano's this melancholy soundcheck
[01:21.92] to her smile
[01:26.02] And that white dress she's wearing
[01:28.87] you haven't seen her
[01:31.33] for a while
[01:33.69]
[01:37.56] But you know...
[01:41.20] that she's watching
[01:45.49] She's laughing, she's turning
[01:47.35] she's holding her tonic like a crux
[01:52.62] The room suddenly spinning
[01:55.08] she walks up and asks how you are
[02:00.22] so you can smell her perfume
[02:02.61] you can see her lying naked in your arms
[02:06.23]
[02:11.32] And so there's a change...
[02:15.20] in your emotions
[02:19.27] and all of these memories come rushing
[02:22.16] like feral waves to your mind
[02:26.94] of the curl of your bodies
[02:29.23] like two perfect circles entwined
[02:34.56] and you feel hopeless, and homelss
[02:37.00] and lost in the haze
[02:38.61] of the wine
[02:40.64]
[02:45.98] And she leaves...
[02:49.31] with someone you don't know
[02:53.56] but she makes sure you saw her
[02:56.12] she looks right at you and bolts
[03:01.24] As she walks out the door
[03:03.50] your blood boiling
[03:04.64] your stomach in ropes
[03:08.80] and when your friends say what is it
[03:11.29] you look like you've seen a ghost
[03:14.98]
[03:39.37] And you walk...
[03:42.93] under the streetlights
[03:47.00] and you're too drunk to notice
[03:49.08] that everyone is staring at you
[03:54.53] and you so care what you look like
[03:56.95] the world is falling
[03:58.69] around you
[04:00.42]
[04:02.70] You just have to see her
[04:04.72] You just have to see her
[04:06.52] You just have to see her
[04:08.47] You just have to see her
[04:10.38] You just have to see her
[04:12.45]
[04:12.65] and you know that she'll break you
[04:14.37] in two
[04:47.68]
