Midnight In America Lyrics by Dane Conover

Sleep Convention

1982

[Intro]
Midnight in America, textiles erode..
[Chorus]
The century implodes
Taking us and our accomplishments
We’ll never grow old
Lights are low on the boulevards, tonight
[Verse 1]
I’ll take a chance.. [?]
There’s nowhere left to wander
Daylight advances without a sound
The sunshine on concrete brings my feelings out
We’ll take control, you’re the victim of circumstances
Unusual role, cameo appearance in the undertow
[Double Chorus]
My mistress is tired
Leading mе down the trodden path of history
It’s time for lеtting go
[Verse 2]
Tonight’s the night for action, the streets seem fairly deserted
Ideas collide with heartache, imagine all the things we know
It’s out of control, it’s obvious in the overview
We know what we do, naturally I’d say I think it’s up to you
(Let’s not forget the reason we’re at the sleep convention)
[Double Chorus]
My mistress is tired
Leading me down the trodden path of history
It’s time for letting go
[Outro/Chorus]
We’ll take control, assemble ideas (We’ll take control, assemble ideas)
History shows it’s not enough to cry, or tell the occasional lie
The century implodes (the century implodes)
Taking us and our accomplishments
We’ll never grow old (we'll never grow old)
Lights are low on the boulevards
The century implodes (the century implodes)
Taking us and our accomplishments
…
