words and music: Joshua Camp

lyrics

Part I

Oh midnight car alarm,
I awaken to all your charms.
You light up my lonely room.
You play my heart with a loud and mighty tune.
I want to thank you:

-for the sleepless hours so I can count my lucky stars.
-for the conversation that goes on inside my head,
and for a recently decided misery,
I want to thank you.

Oh captain of my time,
the pain is hollow and undefined.
Like the shoes that hang on a powerline,
I am unable to let this feeling slip my mind.
I want to thank you:

-for the sleepless hours so I can count my lucky stars,
-for the conversation that goes on inside my head,
and for a recently decided misery,
I want to thank you:

Midnight car alarm,
Midnight car alarm,
Midnight car alarm,
Midnight car alarm.




Part II

I kicked the spoons,
and I cracked the earth.
Licked my wounds,
but I came out worse.

So I stamped my hooves,
flapped my wings,
tightened my noose,
and I cut my strings.


I stole my blood from a vampire
Polished my gun ‘til it misfired.

I stole my blood from a vampire
Polished my gun ‘til it misfired.
