Midnight Blue

From My Shame Is True2013

Written by Dan Andriano, Derek Grant, Matt Skiba

Produced by Bill Stevenson, Jason Livermore

Lyrics

Midnight Blue

[Verse 1] It came just like the rising sun The shame of everything I've done The pain Blew in just like a storm And now it rains And will forever more [Chorus] What's a boy to do? I had nobody but you My heart is sad but true And midnight blue [Verse 2] And it died out there in the sun A dead rose from the ceiling it hung And you cried You cried out your fucking eyes Before you sang Me happy birthday one last time [Chorus] What's a girl to do? I had nobody but you Your heart is sad but true And midnight blue Midnight blue Midnight blue Midnight blue, woah oh woah [Bridge] I keep a photograph in a drawer Since the day you left me at my door Now there's nothing left of you and me I'm a total wreck, I'm smoldering [Chorus] What's a boy to do? I had nobody but you Our hearts are sad but true And midnight blue Midnight blue Midnight blue Midnight blue And now our hearts are midnight blue

Alkaline Trio have released a new double A-side single, 'The Sacrifice' and 'At Sickness'

The two tracks were originally written for their recent album 'Blood, Hair, and Eyeballs' but left off due to runtime constraints.

Alkaline Trio are soundtracking the end of days: "Armageddon, to me, is a pretty beautiful thing"

Alkaline Trio are back with a vengeance, embracing the darkness and the light in their latest album, 'Blood, Hair, and Eyeballs'.

Alkaline Trio have booked some summer live shows for the UK and Europe
