Burns Out at Midnight Lyrics

i got something to hold back
if i put up a fight it’ll follow me home
i think i might stay out dancing
if my blood runs cold with a heart of stone
& my fire burns out at midnight
 
i get home from working hard, honey
state the obvious & watch it work it’s way in
we been checked out, chasing the money
i been trying to tell ‘em it ain’t no way to live
 
& we go another round, i got nothing to say
it don’t make a difference
might be good on my own, but i ain’t running away
i wanna chase it to the end
when i’m seeing a vision
 
if we take it way too far
i could stay here forever if i let myself
picking dust off my bright star
if my heart of stone weighs on you heavy babe
just hit the lights & call it a night
 
i got reason to believe
this old house gave me revelation
i wasn’t prepared to receive
& you been called upon for the duration
you’re a wrangler keeping the pace
hunting for open space
 
& we might get tangled up, i got nothing to say
it don’t make a difference
i might turn up the heat, it’s getting late
& my fire burns out at midnight
 
yeah my fire burns out at midnight
