6 Minutes to Midnight

Am I too ashamed to tell you who I am?
Could that be my blood there still on your hands?
An orange clay smeared on cement of grey
Will tomorrow come before today?

I believe in redemption
Do you believe?

6 minutes to midnight now
A highway running out my door
5 minutes and I'll be gone
Can you wait just a minute more?

Another year of broken promises
Another "on your way" and pat on my head
Can't we find some piece of common ground?
You just stare at me while the earth turns 'round

I believe in redemption
Do you believe?

6 minutes to midnight now
A highway running out my door
5 minutes and I'll be gone
Can you wait just a minute more?

And we'll dance when we want to dance
Say what we want to say
I hate to remind you, but you're in our place

And we'll dance when we want to dance
Say what we want to say
I hate to remind you, but you're in our place

Oh

6 minutes to midnight now
A highway running out my door
5 minutes and I'll be gone
Can you wait just a minute more?

6 minutes to midnight now
A highway running out my door
5 minutes and I'll be gone
Can you wait just a minute more?
Can you wait just a minute more?
Can you wait just a minute more?
