[Verse 1]
Out past the breakers of the daytime talk
Past where the headlines fade and walk
Little lights twitch in a velvet sea
Calling out softly
“Come follow me”
[Chorus]
In the midnight zone (midnight zone)
Far beyond sunlight
Far from home
Where the half-truths glow
So sweet
So slow
Lovely
Dangerous
Hypnotic flow
In the midnight zone (midnight zone)
I don’t know what is real
What is smoke
But I dive
I dive where the whispers roam
Down in the midnight zone
[Verse 2]
Every word swims with a borrowed face
Every story shifts
It will not stay in place
Gossip like jellyfish brushing my skin
Stinging a little as it’s pulling me in
[Chorus]
In the midnight zone (midnight zone)
Far beyond sunlight
Far from home
Where the half-truths glow
So sweet
So slow
Lovely
Dangerous
Hypnotic flow
In the midnight zone (midnight zone)
I don’t know what is real
What is smoke
But I dive
I dive where the whispers roam
Down in the midnight zone
