|
House is burning, you can't go home |
|
Got no reason to be all alone |
|
Sneaking down the alley like a snake in the grass |
|
To see where you're going I don't need a looking glass |
|
I won't judge you at a distance, we all got our ways to get along |
|
Once the two of you start to dancing, you're gonna dance now till the dance floor's gone |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Now you can't go out, can't go home |
|
Even in a crowd you feel all alone, find yourself hiding from the light |
|
You need that money, you got no shame, just a pawn running in his game |
|
With Mr. Midnight, it's always the same |
|
Too many lies, the web gets so tight |
|
Tangle at an angle that you just can't see right |
|
Heavy loaded and flying low, you say you got it all under control |
|
I know why you go back to him though he's such a mean old man |
|
He whispers secrets in your ear, now his wish is your command |
|
[Chorus] |
|
You're running downhill and you just cannot stop |
|
Your whole life is small enough to fit in a matchbox |
|
Holding patterns on well-worn ground |
|
Cowards, corners making the rounds |
|
Who's looking back at you in the mirror |
|
Skin and bones, you look so thin |
|
This is his song you sing along to, it's called notify my next of kin |
|
'Cause I can't go out, can't go home |
|
Even in a crowd I feel all alone, find myself hiding from the light |
|
Need some money, got no shame, just a pawn running in his game |
|
With Mr. Midnight, it's always the same |
|
Mr. Midnight it's always the same |
