Midnight 10th of December
Ephemeral Love's Dance: Midnight Chronicles
Lyrics
This love will weaken all you know
This love will have a profound effect on everything you understand
The places people find to lose themselves
People discover various places where they can escape or lose themselves
To let their spirits go
They release their inner selves or emotions in these places
That was her last night in the west
It was her final night in the western location
She held the gaze and the suspicion of
She confronted both the worst and the best kinds of men
The worst men and the best
(Repeated) She encountered both the worst and the best kinds of men
You stand up or you
You either take a stand or surrender
You stand down
(Repeated) You either take a stand or surrender
But you get that chance only one time
You have only one opportunity to seize that chance
I’m not meant for it
The speaker feels they are not suited for it
My eyes won’t forget
The speaker's eyes will retain the memory
Midnight 10th of December
Refers to a specific moment in time: midnight on the 10th of December
Those tiny cuts on tired skin
Small wounds on exhausted skin
She scraped a history together when
She pieced together a personal history when asked about her whereabouts
I asked her where she’d been
(Repeated) She pieced together a personal history when asked about her whereabouts
We danced the streets on lazy time
They joyfully wandered through the streets without any hurry
Retreat disfigured by the rain falling
Retreat or escape altered by the rain falling drop by drop
One drop at a time
(Repeated) Retreat or escape altered by the rain falling drop by drop
You know it’s a simple sin
A simple wrongdoing or fault
It’s one that we belong in
This fault is one that they belong to or identify with
I got all my lessons from one
The speaker learned all their lessons from someone who never learns
Who never learns
(Repeated) The speaker learned all their lessons from someone who never learns
