dont let the title fool ya, this is actualy quite optimistic, finding the bright side after midnight

DEAD BY MIDNIGHT ©'
by rak
 
if I don’t be dead by midnight
meet me before dawn
takes centuries
to get things right
and just seconds til it’s gone
everything elusive
time and hopes and dreams
say your prayers
and keep the faith
everything’s extreme
 
if I don’t be dead by midnight
meet me at sunrise
another chance
to set things right
look into my eyes
nowadays its social media
air your grievances out loud
swallow all they feed ya
blend in with the crowd
 
if I don’t be dead by midnight
I’ll find you after noon
another chance
to get it right
the end approaching soon
would I be foolhardy
to assume a pack of lies
and then repeat them
one by one
one always denies
 
if I don’t be dead by midnight
meet me at twilight
never have a better chance
to try to get it right
it’s always just a notion
an idea that comes and goes
if self-righteousness
can be excused
hypocrisy just flows
 
if I don’t be dead by midnight
meet me on the playing field
everything I thought
was right
will finally be revealed
there will be
no more discussion
no rebuttals to be heard
what it is
is what it is
and that’s the final word
