Ten After Midnight

Outside of a crowed place
I sit and long for your embrace
And I just can't deny
That I've been broken down inside

Tonight, I'll crawl into
A bottle until morning time
And wallow in self hatred
That sometimes refuses to die

Let it get late, close your eyes babe
When you let go of me
World comes down on me
At ten after midnight I will call you from the street

Is it too late? Can this be fate?
World comes down on me
When you let go of me
At ten after midnight I will try to make it right

Tonight it's hit and run
I took a breath and shot the gun
When I looked in your eyes
I saw a burning paradise

Trapped in a shopping mall
You kept me warm as I recall
I welcome the heartache
Like I've done so many times before

Let it get late, close your eyes babe
When you let go of me
World comes down on me
At ten after midnight I will call you from the street

Is it too late? Can this be fate?
World comes down on me
When you let go of me
At ten after midnight I will try to make it right

Let it get late, close your eyes babe
When you let go of me
World comes down on me
At ten after midnight I will call you from the street
