They say everything is beautiful when it begins but I was too busy
Being selfish my heart was so hurt I found myself between a rock and
A hard place and then the darkest night of my life you
Appeared against the background of a billion glimmering stars
Gotta think just running high
Meet me... midnight I gotta get to the other side
You see? good never shuts a door without opening another one you
Gotta a good thing going so don't give it to go by I'm lost lost in
This sad and beautiful world in other words meet
Me... midnight make me high stand still meet me... midnight
I gotta get to the other side meet me
Meet me... midnight now lay your hands on me baby meet me...
Midnight gotta think just running high I gotta get to the other side
I've been waiting for way too long just to find out that I was wrong
Gotta think just running high I gotta get to the other side I've been
Waiting for way too long just to find out that I was wrong gotta
Think just running high I gotta get to the other side I've been
Waiting for way too long just to find out that I was wrong gotta
Think just running high I gotta get to the other side I've been
Waiting for way too long just to find out that I was wrong gotta
Think just running high I gotta get to the other side I've been
Waiting for way too long just to find out that I was wrong gotta
Think just running high I gotta get to the other side I've
Been waiting for way too long just to find out that I was wrong...

Overall Meaning

The opening line of Slackwax's song "Midnight" speaks of the beauty of beginnings but the singer was too preoccupied with her own pain to notice. She found herself in a difficult situation, stuck between a rock and a hard place, before the darkest night of her life brought a moment of clarity. The appearance of someone special against a backdrop of glittering stars inspires her to run towards the future, leaving behind the pain and mistakes of the past. The song is a call to seize the opportunity and take the chance for happiness.


The lyrics of "Midnight" suggest a moment of desperation and awakening for the singer. The darkness around her, both literal and metaphorical, is lifted by the arrival of someone who represents hope and a new beginning. The use of the second person "you" in the later verses makes the song a plea for connection and intimacy, as the singer longs to be touched and lifted up by her lover. The repetition of the chorus "Meet me... midnight" adds to the sense of urgency and longing as the singer seeks to escape her pain and embrace the unknown.

They say
Everything is beautiful when it begins
But I was too busy being selfish
My heart was so hurt
I found myself between a rock and a hard place
And then
The darkest night of my life
You appeared against the background of a billion glimmering stars ✨️✨️✨️
Meet me... midnight I gotta get to the other side
You see?
Good never shuts a door without opening another one
You gotta a good thing going
So don't give it to go by
I'm lost
Lost in this sad and beautiful world
In other words
Meet me... midnight
Make me high stand still
Meet me... midnight
I gotta get to the other side meet me
Meet me... midnight
Now lay your hands on me baby
Meet me... midnight
Gotta think just running high
I gotta get to the other side
I've been waiting for way too long
Just to find out
That I was wrong...
