Karaoké Sometime Around Midnight The Airborne Toxic Event

And it starts sometime around midnight

Or at least that's when you lose yourself for a minute or two

As you stand under the bar lights

And the band plays some song about forgetting yourself for a while

And the piano's this melancholy sound track to her smile

And that white dress she's wearing you haven't seen it for a while

But you know that she's watching

She's laughing, she's turning she's holding her tonic like a crux

The room suddenly spinning she walks up and asks how you are

So you can smell her perfume you can see her lying naked in your arms

And so there's a change in your emotions

And all of these memories come rushing like feral waves to your mind

Of the curl of your bodies like two perfect circles entwined

And you feel hopeless and homeless and lost in the haze of the wine

Then she leaves with someone you don't know

But she makes sure you saw her she looks right at you and bolts

As she walks out the door your blood boiling your stomach in ropes

And when your friends say what is it you look like you've seen a ghost

Then you walk under the streetlights

And you're too drunk to notice that everyone's staring at you

And you so care what you look like the world is falling around you

You just have to see her you just have to see her you just have to see her

You just have to see her just have to see her

And know that she'll break you in two
