Five Minutes to Midnight Lyrics

Brown eyes and lungs are filled up with smoke
Fast lives are stuck in the undertoe
But you know the places I wanna go

'Cause, oh, oh, oh

I've got a sickness
You've got the cure
You've got the spunk
I've been lookin' for
And I've got a plan
We walk out the door

No you wanna just let go
It's time to roll down the windows

Sing it, oh, oh, oh

Yeah all we need
So here we go

Turn it up
It's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough, shakin' me up
Turn it up

Alright
At five minutes to midnight
You see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop
And come alive

We could

Pack up
And leave all our things behind
No fact, or fiction, or storyline
'Cause I need you more than just for tonight

You're, oh, oh

All I care
I can't stop my breathing
I'm weak and you were my medicine
I won't stop 'till I am under your skin

No you wanna just let go
It's time to roll down the windows

Sing it, oh, oh, oh

Yeah all we need
So here we go

Turn it up
It's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough, shakin' me up
Turn it up

Alright
At five minutes to midnight
You see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop
And come alive

And when the clock strikes twelve
Will you find another party
Go and kiss and tell
'Cause you know I never will

I think we should strike a match
We'll hold it to the wind to
See how long it lasts
We can make the time stand still

Turn it up
It's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough, shakin' me up
Turn it up

Alright
At five minutes to midnight
You see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop

Turn it up
It's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough, shakin' me up
Turn it up

Alright
At five minutes to midnight
You see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop
And come alive
