lyrics

It's getting close to midnight
it's been a long
bliss of celebration
in the dark

I can feel impatience
coming strong
spreading like a riot
but then it's gone
just gone away
it's gone to seek out a better man

Dogs are in the choir
they roar, they wine and moan
raising expectations
all around

(are you) swapping sparks for wishes
when they fall?
fall like a veil
they fall and vanish in the air

They burn down desire
for the things I left behind
and for all the things I've planned
I'll take it as a chance to start again

Now, it's just past the midnight
but it's like dawn
lightened by the fire
from above

and I'm heading blackened
for my home
I am heading quiet
for my home

Cause I'm out of desire
for the boys I left behind
and for all the men that stay
I'll take it as a chance to stop.
I'm out of desire
for the places left behind
and for all the dreams of fame
I'll take it as a chance to start again.
It's a bursting desire.
