Seconds To Midnight (11:59)

Why do I feel like I'm the one with issues?
Was I coming on too strong, got it wrong when I kissed you
I cared for you
And babe I thought you knew
(I cared for you)

Dancing in the dark isn't hard, it's mysterious
Your hand over my heart, in your arms, it was serious
I wanted you
You said you want me too
(I wait for you)

But at 11:59
I stood under the sky
And saw her by your side

While I was counting down
Three
Two
One
Go

This was meant to be the best night
You chose to stand me up but that's fine
Oh my my
I can't get it right
They run for dear life
Just seconds to midnight
Just seconds to midnight

But wait just a minute, she's a friend, are you kidding?
No it's happening again, will it end, now I'm spinning
Like a dancer
I always danced for you
(I danced for you)

So now I'm stumbling in the street, this city's gonna know
You couldn't be discreet, and I'll never let it go
Cause now you choose some girl you never knew
(And I chose you)

Cause at 11:59
I stood under the sky
And saw her by your side

While I was counting down
Three
Two
One
Go

This was meant to be the best night
You chose to stand me up but that's fine
Oh my my
I can't get it right
They run for dear life
Seconds to midnight

Tall, dark, and hit me like a firework
Three cheers to me cause I never learn
Oh my my
Well maybe I'm cursed
They run for dear life
Just seconds to midnight
Just seconds to midnight

But when the sun rises, and the drinks wear off
Do you think about it, do you carry on?
Does it paralyse you in the break of dawn?
To think of me and how you got it wrong
You got it wrong
You got it wrong
You'll think of me
When you hear this song

This was meant to be the best night
You chose to stand me up but that's fine
Oh my my
Well maybe mom's right
They run for dear life
Seconds to midnight

Tall, dark, and hit me like a firework
Three cheers to me cause I'll never learn
Oh my my
Maybe I'm cursed
They run for dear life
Just seconds to midnight
Just seconds to midnight

Just seconds to midnight
