Midnight’s Crashing (To Leave Everything Behind)

"And Just Like That, Everything Sounded Different"

Live from Petit Champlain, Quebec, Canada, March 7, 2015

Streets are filled with lonely ghosts
Millions of flares up in the air
Colors I’ve learned to fear the most
Too beautiful for me stranger

I’ve veiled my eyes a thousand times
Hiding secrets deep down inside
I gave up my soul to change the frame

Midnight’s crashing, looks so empty
(The lights are gone my bones are dry)
Need one more wish before goodbye
Midnight’s crashing, looks so empty
(The lights are gone my bones are dry)
Need one more wish before goodbye
Before goodbye, before goodbye

When dreams are filled with hopeless stars
Millions of stars without a shine
I keep my head close to the ground
Waiting for God

I’ve veiled my eyes a thousand times
Hiding secrets deep down inside
I gave up my soul to change the frame

Midnight’s crashing, looks so empty
(The lights are gone my bones are dry)
Need one more wish before goodbye
Midnight’s crashing, looks so empty
(The lights are gone my bones are dry)
Need one more wish before goodbye
Before goodbye, before goodbye

There’s a girl outside
There’s a girl outside in the parking lot
She says man, you should try and take shot
Can’t you see my walls are crumbling
I’ve been thinking of jumping, she says

There’s a girl outside, she said
I used to pray, to believe
But it’s all the same

Are you ready to jump
Are you ready to leave everything behind
When you’re ready to jump
When you’re ready to leave everything behind
To take one last chance, somehow
I’ve been ready to jump

She said I used to pray, to believe
But it’s all the same

I’ve been ready to jump
Come closer

I’ve been ready to jump, she said
I’ve been thinking about everything left behind

Need one more wish before goodbye

Midnight’s crashing, looks so empty
(The lights are gone my bones are dry)
Need one more wish before goodbye
Midnight’s crashing, looks so empty
(The lights are gone my bones are dry)
Need one more wish before goodbye

(before goodbye)
A single touch, a perfect score
A burning church with open doors
(Before goodbye)
A single touch, a perfect score
A burning church with open doors

A single touch
I’m kneeling before you
There’s a girl outside in the parking lot
She says man you should try and take a shot
Can’t you see my walls are crumbling
I’ve been thinking of jumping
All my life

I used to pray, I used to pray, used to believe
A single touch is all I need
A single touch is all I can give you
I’ve been thinking of jumping all my life
I’ve been thinking of letting go
To leave everything behind
I’ve been thinking to leave everything behind
To let go one more time

A single touch is all I need
A single touch is all I can give you tonight

I might be broken, but I’m not defeated
Those days are gone, I know
There’s blood on the floor
I might be broken, but I’m not defeated
Look at me now, just look at me now
I’m on my feet and I’m praying
But I’m far from the ground
I might be broken, but I’m not defeated
There’s blood on the floor, I know
