Lyrics

Midnight

They put away the DDT now

But gave metal to the sea

A hundred years can't wait

A hundred years can't wait another day

The only eagle, only tree

Within a desert that was green

A hundred years can't wait

A hundred years can't wait another day

Midnight

Draws ever near

Daylight

Is fading so fast

It's so close to midnight

Midnight

The melting ice will fuel the sea

By burning gold from ancient tree

A hundred years can't wait

A hundred years can't wait another day

This is progress, this is sin

Injecting poison in her skin

A hundred years can't wait

A hundred years can't wait another day

Midnight

Draws ever near

Daylight

Is fading so fast

It's so close to midnight

Midnight
