Middle of the Night Lyrics by JEMS

2019

Burning out on the every day act
So a getaway was on in one hour flat
I flew out of the house with my life half packed
Stop and go and stop and go
Oh we’re never coming back
Off the plane and on to solid ground
The pills are wearing off but you’re wearing on me now
How’m I supposed to relax when you wind me up somehow
Back and forth and back and forth
And now we’re going down
You always gotta come in looking for a fight
And when I say all the wrong things you start being polite
And if there’s one thing I do know it’s not about being right
It’s about being something to somebody in the middle of the night
This five star room is making me depressed
And I’m getting drunk before I can even get dressed
Did I come all the way to be your unwanted guest?
Up and down and up and down
Can we please lay this to rest?
You always gotta come in looking for a fight
And when I say all the wrong things you start being polite
And if there’s one thing I do know it’s not about being right
It’s about being something to somebody in the middle of the night
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to see you go
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to be alone
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to see you go
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to be alone
The bags were loaded and baby so were you
And I’m sobering up just knowing that we’re through
Is sleeping alone something I can really do?
Up & down and up & down
Everything they said was true
Oh yeah
You always gotta come in looking for a fight
And when I say all the wrong things you start being polite
And if there’s one thing I do know it’s not about being right
It’s about being something to somebody in the middle of the night
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to see you go
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to be alone
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to see you go
I can’t stand you but I can’t stand to be alone
