midnight
DJ Marky Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can't wait till this day is over
Can't wait for this day to be done
Can't wait feel the end is closer
You can't keep me holding on
'Cause I'm drown by a feeling
The night is calling me
I'm ready to start living
Where music flows free

Take me or leave me
I am what I will be
Live young and so free
Make this reality
Break through and feel it
Just like that first kiss
And now you won't miss
Life is bliss, could bliss be this? yeaaaah

Midnight, the real me
I'm shining oh! can't you see?
Midnight, I'm letting myself go
I'm lost in the rhythm
The night takes control

Can't get up I must come down
Can't get the bells to stop ringing
Can't reject and leave now
9 to 5 has lost its meaning
Dear I'm sure you know this feeling
You know what's on my mind
'Cause when the night comes I'm leaving
Leaving it all behind

Take me or leave me
I am what I will be
Live young and so free
Make this reality
Break through and feel it
Just like that first kiss
And now you want this
Life is bliss, could bliss be this? Yeah

Midnight, the real me
I'm shining oh! can't you see?
Midnight, I'm letting myself go




I'm lost in the rhythm
The night takes control

Overall Meaning

In DJ Marky's song "Midnight," the lyrics express a sense of restlessness and a desire to break free from the mundanity of everyday life. The song seems to suggest that there is something magical about the midnight hour, a time when the singer feels most alive and free. The chorus repeats the word "midnight" over and over again, emphasizing the importance of this time of day to the singer's sense of self.


The first verse sets up a sense of urgency, with the singer claiming that they "can't wait" for the day to be over and the feeling that the end is "closer." The second verse encourages the listener to "take me or leave me," suggesting that the singer is unapologetically themselves and unwilling to compromise on who they are. The final verse speaks directly to someone the singer cares about, telling them that they "know what's on my mind" and that "when the night comes I'm leaving." Ultimately, the song suggests that there is something deeply liberating about being lost in the rhythm of music and letting oneself go.
