Awake at Midnight (From "Bliss the Musical”)

There will always be pink lagoons
There will always be magic wands
There will always be magic spells that glimmer until they're gone
But we have our voices and sharper minds than any sword
And we have our choices and stories that you can't ignore
The air is cold
The night is ours
I'm wide awake at midnight
I become myself
Beneath the stars
And I step into tomorrow
So what am I 'sposed to do?
A pretty prince with power and fame
It's time I step aside
Time for them to take the reins
Take the keys to the castle
The kingdom reaches wide and far
I wanna see what happens when princesses are put in charge
When we're put in charge (when princesses are put in charge)
When princesses are put in charge (when princesses are put in charge)
The air is cold (Whoa)
The night is ours (Oh yeah)
And the story's just beginning
She screams the truth (she screams the truth)
She burns like fire (burns like fire)
She steps into tomorrow (tomorrow)
In a land not far away, lived a girl who wanted to be perfect
In a land not far away, lived a girl who wanted to be free
And she wanted strength
And she wanted knowledge
And she wanted badly to be heard
And she wanted space
And she wanted friendship
To see the wild and touch the earth
And she wanted happiness
And she wanted beauty
And she wanted power
And she wanted love
Once upon a time there was a princess
Whatever that means
Dreaming but wide awake
Everything breaks at midnight
Dreaming but wide awake
Everything breaks at midnight
Tomorrow is ours to take
Ground's gonna shake at midnight
Dreaming but wide awake
Everything breaks at midnight
The air is cold
The night is ours
Tomorrow is a mystery
And I'm wide awake
With the midnight stars
So I step into the starlight
To the starlight
Into the starlight
