[Verse 1]
I'm going downtown where the music plays
Gonna live my life like it's slipping away
Gonna get drunk on the midnight air
Gonna pour my heart out to whoever is there

[Pre-Chorus]
Look at my eyes, look at my eyes
Never was good at telling lies
Look at my life, look at my life
I never was good at long goodbyes

[Chorus]
Midnight, take me somewhere
I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more
My life is somewhere out there
I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more

[Verse 2]
Gonna wake up in a parching sun
In a field of dreams like a river's run
Gonna spread out these broken wings
Gonna ride the wings to where the future sings
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at my life, look at my life
I'm opening up like a butterfly
Look at my eyes, look at my eyes
Every tear is a tear that dries

[Chorus]
Midnight, take me somewhere
I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more
My life is somewhere out there
I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more

[Bridge]
Look at my eyes, look at my eyes
Every tear is a tear that dries

[Chorus]
Midnight, take me somewhere
I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more
My life is somewhere out there
I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more
No, I don't wanna fight it no more
[Outro]
Going downtown where the music plays
Gonna live my life like it's slipping away
