Lyrics When Another Midnight - Sarah Slean

When Another Midnight

When another midnight comes to rest
On the cheek of our sleeplessness
All crusaders will wake and dress
Pull their flags from their pillowcases
You could hear of Eden hold its breath
On this the anniversary of Wonder’s death
O ho an occasion what a terrible mess
Or a time for a new dress
How to live a noble life
In this the age of insanity
Where every prophet’s face is turnin' white
It’s the look the look of can it be?
It’s shock it’s horror it’s despair
It’s Socrates weeping in a wheelchair
Teacher drooling unaware
Where are my students?
Where o where?!
Poet to poet nun to nun
I’ve met a distance that I have to run
Man with madness must come undone
I’m going down a smoking gun
All the commuters will hear out words
And hide in garages like frightened birds
But you can’t stop the moaning of the Earth
And the midnight crackling of my nerve!
Just another midnight falling
Come out come out!
Angels come out!
It’s just the sound of another midnight falling
Come out come out at the end of the world!
It’s just the sound of another midnight falling
Come out come out the time is now!
It’s just the sound of another midnight falling
O another midnight!
