Mori Calliope - Dance Past Midnight Lyrics

Clock strikes just another hour closer
In this life, where we fight to be the most heard
But "time" exists, don't know where it ran
Never enough for what I'm plan, plan, planning
I get tired, and I end up sleepin' all day
I'm hard wired to be motivated halfway
There's so much stress I can't convey (na na na)
Just do my best with the role I play

Burning out, it's only that much harder (much harder)
But there's a reason we're known fire starters, babe
Three, two, one (go)

Take control
I won't live another life
We put the time in, the grind isn't slowin' down
'Til empress takes her crown
Heads will roll
Won't believe another lie
Don't call me lazy, I stay breezing through the hell
Dancing past the clock strike twelve

Here we go (go) go (go) go (go)
Keep dancing, advancing and get ahead
Here we go (go) go (go) go (go)
We're still hanging on by a thread

My brain is overloaded
Rather take it slow inside
The strain has got me goin' crazy, praying I can hide (ah)
I got ten million things that I wanna do
But there's only like ten that I might see through

That life of smashing limits I led (ah)
I wanna sleep and dream it instead (ah)
We know that it hurts
But put in the work and the fantasy exits your head (woo)

Burning out, it's only that much harder (much harder)
But there's a reason we're known fire starters, babe
Three, two, one (go)

Take control
I won't live another life
We put the time in, the grind isn't slowin' down
'Til empress takes her crown
Heads will roll
Won't believe another lie
Don't call me lazy, I stay breezing through the hell
Dancing past the clock strike twelve

Here we go (go) go (go) go (go)
Keep dancing, advancing and get ahead
Here we go (go) go (go) go (go)
We're still hanging on by a thread

We toe the line
Of sparing time
And lacking motivation (lacking motivation)
We fall behind
Ambition blind (huh)
If there's no road yet, guess we'll make one

The sloth got so tempting
Now that story's ending
The cynics better run
Three, two, one

Take control (take control)
I won't live another life (another life)
We put the time in, the grind isn't slowin' down
'Til empress takes her crown (go)
Heads will roll (here we go)
Won't believe another lie (believe another lie)
Don't call me lazy, I stay breezing through the hell (through the hell)
Dancing past the clock strike twelve

Here we go (go) go (go) go (go)
Keep dancing, advancing and get ahead
Here we go (go) go (go) go (go)
We're still hanging on by a thread
