The Airborn Toxic Event- Sometime around midnight

And it starts, sometime around midnight.

Or at least, that's when you lose yourself for a minute or two.

As you stand under the bar lights and the band plays some song

about forgetting yourself for a while.

And the piano's this melancholy soundtrack to her smile

and that white dress she's wearing,

you haven't seen her for a while but you know, that she's watching.

She's laughing, she's turning, she's holding her tonic like a cross.

The room suddenly spinning, she walks up and asks how you are,

so you can smell her perfume .

You can see her lying naked in your arms and so there's a change in your emotions.

And all of these memories come rushing like feral waves to your mind of the curl of your bodies,

like two perfect circles entwined and you feel hopeless,

and homeless, and lost in the haze of the wine.

And she leaves with someone you don't know, but she makes sure you saw her,

she looks right at you and bolts as she walks out the door

your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes and then your friends say

"What is it? You look like you've seen a ghost."

And you walk under the streetlights and you're too drunk

to notice that everyone's staring at you

You don't care what you look like, the world is falling around you.

You just have to see her.

You just have to see her.

You just have to see her.

You just have to see her.

You just have to see her.

You know that she'll break you in two.
