lyrics
To wonder & die is such a scam
Like the people & stories across this land
I'm moving towards a blank white stare
Near all of the moments we once feared
I dodge death at any expense
Short-changing the prophets for a night of skin.
I'll never leave I'm a constant verse
Spinning around you & your slavery's whore
Midnight mystic from a distance you call
A midnight mystic wrapped up in song
Midnight mystic from your heart to your phone
A midnight mystic is how you're sold
To wander & die is not a scam
Like the people & stories across this land
I'm moving towards a blank white stare
Near all of the moments we once shared
Your shutters are frozen your assets set sail
More like your father with each breath exhaled
Between mind & time there's no farewell
Only a vacancy where your heart once dwelled
Midnight mystic from a distance you call
A midnight mystic wrapped up in song
Midnight mystic from your heart to your phone
A midnight mystic is how you're sold
You've come this far with an open heart
Through kingdoms & courts space & time
Remove it all like the trees in fall
When waves of dreams roll through your eyes
Midnight mystic from a distance you call
A midnight mystic wrapped up in song
Midnight mystic from your heart to your phone
A midnight mystic is how you're sold
