After Midnight Lyrics by Liam Sturgess

Hit the Stage

2013

Woken up by the sound of my own heart
Telling me to beat my soul in a surreal game of chess
In which I'm the pawn and jealousy's the king
I wrote a book in which my worth
Was pitted against my actions in a footrace
The winner was my false profession
And now the sun's set and I'm at the edge of a tower built of regret
I'll stand tall and I'll take the fall, the chance of the roulette
It's time to banish this evil life of anger, worry and debt
After midnight, I'll be stronger, the clock is counting down
To the day when I can climb up on my high horse then jump down to the ground
After midnight, I'll be ready for all the ups and downs
Every push in the wrong direction redirected, tell me I look good in my prime
I sang of confrontation, it led to the end of an era
There's nothing left for me
I preach and I scream out all of the things I'd change within the world
But no one ever listens
Now the sun's set and I'm off the edge, there's nothing left but regret
They tell me stand tall and take the fall, misfortune of the roulette
I used to think all there was to life was anger, worry and debt
After midnight, I'll be stronger, the clock is counting down
To the day when I can climb up on my high horse then jump down to the ground
After midnight, I'll be ready for all the ups and downs
Every push in the wrong direction redirected, tell me I look good in my prime
After midnight, I'll be stronger, the clock is counting down
To the day when I can climb up on my high horse then jump down to the ground
After midnight, I'll be ready for all the ups and downs
Every push in the wrong direction redirected
After midnight the sun will rise, and the moon will fall
I will sing of battles won because the Prime has come
