The Midnight - Infinite

  

Your mama died and left you the farm 
You moved back from the city, learned to see the stars 
 Forgotten lives you forgot you carried 
Your former selves you forgot to bury 
You read the old books you used to need 
To make you whole, make you feel complete 
Then you made the drinks you used to love
 But somewhere, you lost the taste for the social drugs 
 
The ancient, empty skies 
 That haunt you all your life 
Projections of the lights that have long left you bеhind 
 
When it doesn't feel like homе 
You turn the music up 
 'Cause time, it takes its toll 
And it don't feel like it was 
But it hits you when it does 
And you roll the windows down 
And you turn the music up 
When the sun shines on this town 
It almost feels like love 
We're infinite enough 
 
You told the stories, but they fell through 
 In a strange land where the stranger's you 
And all the masks that you used to wear 
 Just to find out here nobody cares 
You saw a girl from afar
 She was reading 
Jaws at the local bar 
 You found the words and brought her home 
To your childhood bed in a thunderstorm 
 
Those ancient, empty skies 
 Will haunt you all your life 
 Projections of the lights that have long left us behind 
 
When it doesn't feel like home 
You turn the music up 
'Cause time, it takes its toll 
And it don't feel like it was 
But it hits you when it does 
And you roll the windows down 
And you turn the music up 
When the sun shines on this town
 It almost feels like love 
We're infinite enough 
 
Can you see the sun rising? 
Can you see the blue sky shining? 
The only thing stronger than all that I can find is 
Time 
 
When it doesn't feel like home 
You turn the music up 
'Cause time, it takes its toll 
And it don't feel like it was 
But it hits you when it does 
 And you roll the windows down 
And you turn the music up 
When the sun shines on this town 
 It almost feels like love 
We're infinite enough
