"Midnight Messiah" lyrics

"Midnight Messiah"

Lost time
Thought I lost my mind
How the hell did I end up here?
Rewind
Help to remind
The last thing I can remember
Dreamtime
Floating cloud nine
Heavenly bliss utopia
Sublime
Feeling so divine
Just another pleasant nightmare

In my dreams
There's a song I once knew
Like an uncanny Strange Déjà Vu
Memories flashing all through my brain
Over and over and over again

Midnight messiah
Darkness descends
Eternally wired
The dream never ends
Twilight desires
Midnight messiah

Moon shine
Time to come alive
No rest for the wicked
Downtown
Have a look around
Feeding the obsession in my head

There's a place that I go
Where no one's afraid
It's a feeling that we all know
But everyone's ashamed to say

In my dreams
There's a flame burning bright
Constant motion shines into the night
Forevermore blistering out of control
Over and and over and over it goes

Midnight messiah
Darkness descends
Eternally wired
The dream never ends
Twilight desires
Midnight messiah

Back in the Waking Life
A Midsummer Night's Dream
I realize
I can no longer fly alone
Help find my destiny
Take me back into the dream
For all eternity
It's calling me back to my Home

In my life
I've lost all self control
Like a sword piercing This Dying Soul
Breaking and shaking and left in the cold
Watch this compulsive obsession unfold

Midnight messiah
Darkness descends
Eternally wired
The dream will never end

I can't stand the pressure
The daytime collectors
I'll never go back there again
Keep those eyes closed
You're now going home
Forever alive in your head

Twilight eternal
Midnight messiah
