Midnights Gone

We got our first McD  onalds and it made the headline news

In a town where no one locks their doors at   night.

All the lights are flashing yellow,   we just roll right through,

And there is not a   superstore in   sight

But there’s more to life, I told myself

I’d say goodbye by the time the clock struck twelve.

And I can’t pull the trig   ger on    that changing world out there.

With all these dreams I can’t be  liev   e   I’m still standing here.

It’s time to face the fact I’m not the rebel that I thought,

’cause mid  night’s gone, but I’m not.

Everyone I   run into has known me all my   life.

There are no secrets   you can call your own.

Since the age of   seventeen I’ve faced the morning light

Saying this day is the day I’m gonna go.

All I have to do is drive away,

But the things that make me crazy always make me stay.

And I can’t pull the trig   ger on    that changing world out there.

With all these dreams I can’t be  liev   e   I’m still standing here.

It’s time to face the fact I’m not the rebel that I thought,

’cause mid  night’s gone, but I’m not.

It’s time to face the fact I’m not the rebel that I thought,

’cause mid  night’s gone, mid  night’s gone, but I’m not.
