Mr. Midnight Lyrics - I'm A Stranger Here - The Devil Makes Three

House is burning, you can't go home 

Got no reason to be all alone 

Sneaking down the alley like a snake in the grass 

To see where you're going I don't need a looking glass 

I won't judge you at a distance, we all got our ways to get along 

Once the two of you start to dancing 

You're gonna dance now till the dance floor's gone 

Now you can't go out, can't go home 

Even in a crowd you feel all alone, find yourself hiding from the light 

You need that money, you got no shame, just a pawn running in his game 

With Mr. Midnight, it's always the same 

Too many lies, the web gets so tight 

Tangle at an angle that you just can't see right 

Heavy loaded and flying low, you say you got it all under control 

I know why you go back to him though he's such a mean old man 

He whispers secrets in your ear, now his wish is your command 

Now you can't go out, can't go home 

Even in a crowd you feel all alone, find yourself hiding from the light 

You need that money, you got no shame, just a pawn running in his game 

With Mr. Midnight, it's always the same 

You're running downhill and you just cannot stop 

Your whole life is small enough to fit in a matchbox 

Holding patterns on well-worn ground 

Cowards, corners making the rounds 

Who's looking back at you in the mirror 

Skin and bones, you look so thin 

This is his song you sing along to, it's called notify my next of kin 

'Cause I can't go out, can't go home 

Even in a crowd I feel all alone, find myself hiding from the light 

Need some money, got no shame, just a pawn running in his game 

With Mr. Midnight, it's always the same 

Mr. Midnight it's always the same
