Boys Like Girls › Lyrics › Five Minutes to Midnight

Brown eyes and lungs are filled up with smoke
Fast lives are stuck in the undertow
But you know the places I wanna go
'Cause oh, oh, oh, I've got a sickness, you've got the cure
You've got the spunk I've been lookin' for
And I've got a plan, we walk out the door

You know you wanna just let go
It's time to roll down the windows
And sing it, oh, oh
Yeah, all we need, so here we go

Turn it up, it's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough
Shakin' me up, turn it up

Alright, at five minutes to midnight
You'll see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop and come alive

We could pack up and leave all our things behind
No fact or fiction or storyline
'Cause I need you more than just for tonight
You're oh, oh, all I care, I can't stop my breathing in
I'm weak and you were my medicine
I won't stop till I am under your skin

You know you wanna just let go
It's time to roll down the windows
And sing it, oh, oh
Yeah, all we need, so here we go

Turn it up, it's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough
Shakin' me up, turn it up

Alright, at five minutes to midnight
You'll see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop and come alive

And when the clock strikes twelve
Will you find another party, go and kiss and tell?
'Cause you know I never will
I think we should strike a match
We'll hold it to the wind to and see how long it lasts
We can make the time stand still

Turn it up, it's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough
Shakin' me up, turn it up

Alright, at five minutes to midnight
You'll see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop and come alive

Turn it up, it's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonight
I can't get enough
Shakin' me up, turn it up

Alright, at five minutes to midnight
You'll see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop and come alive
