[Lyrics] After Midnight (Nothing Good)
People standing off to the sides
Phone buzz, buzz, another “you outside?”
Everybody’s dressed like they got somewhere to be
But we all know it’s just fake luxury
Same old faces in a different bar
Cheap smoke drifting from a stranger’s car
Laugh too loud just to kill the quiet
One more bad idea starts a riot
And I swear every time the clock strikes twelve
We turn into somebody else
After midnight, nothing good happens
Just bad decisions dressed in high-end fashion
Everybody running from the silence
Turning up the noise, don't wanna fight it
After midnight, we all get reckless
Temporary highs and permanent messes
City lights shine, but no one will admit
After midnight, nothing good comes from it
Kitchen conversations at 2 AM
Talking like philosophers with drunk best friends
Promises made that won’t survive daylight
Truth is blurry underneath those bright lights
Taxi ride with the window cracked
Trying to outrun what keeps coming back
Everybody searching for a feeling
Everybody looking for that healing
Funny how the dark makes wrong look right
Till the sun exposes every lie
After midnight, nothing good happens
Just bad decisions dressed in high-end fashion
Everybody running from the silence
Turning up the noise, don't wanna fight it
After midnight, we all get reckless
Temporary highs and permanent messes
City lights shine, but no one will admit
After midnight, nothing good comes from it
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Every “one last time” turns into sunrise
Every “I’m okay” sounds like a lie
After midnight, nothing good happens
Just bad decisions dressed in high-end fashion
Everybody running from the silence
Turning up the noise, don't wanna fight it
After midnight, we all get reckless
Temporary highs and permanent messes
City lights shine, but no one will admit
After midnight, nothing good comes from it
