Rain, he wanted it comfortable
He sought for a life of ease and comfort

I wanted that pain
I was craving for struggles, hardships, and pain

He wanted a bride
He was looking forward to getting married

I was making my own name
I was determined to establish myself and be recognized for who I am

Chasing that fame
I was pursuing popularity, admiration, and recognition

He stayed the same
He remained the person he was, without any significant changes

All of me changed like midnight
I underwent a transformation that happened suddenly and drastically, just like night turning into day

My town was a wasteland
The place I grew up in was barren and lacked opportunities

Full of cages, full of fences
It was a restrictive and oppressive environment that kept people from realizing their true potentials

Pageant queens and big pretenders
There were individuals who were obsessed with shallow appearances and lived in a facade of lies

But for some it was paradise
Despite its flaws, some people found happiness and contentment in this town

My boy was a montage
The guy I was with was like a sequence of cinematic scenes that were beautiful and captivating

A slow-motion love potion
Our love was an enchanting force that seemed to slow down time

Jumping off things in the ocean
We shared adventures that were thrilling and exciting

I broke his heart 'cause he was nice
I ended our relationship even though he was kind and thoughtful to me

He was sunshine, I was midnight
He was radiant and full of life, while I was dark and gloomy

It came like a postcard
The situation seemed perfect and picturesque, as if it was a greeting card

Picture perfect, shiny family
The family I saw was composed of attractive, happy, and successful individuals

Holiday peppermint candy
Everything was sweet and festive, just like candy canes during holidays

But for him it's every day
For him, this kind of life was a daily reality and nothing special

So I peered through a window
I looked inside the lives of other people, trying to find what I lacked

A deep portal, time travel
It was like a door that led me to a different time and space

All the love we unraveled
I reminisced the moments of love, intimacy, and connection we shared, but eventually lost

And the life I gave away
I realized that I had a chance to have a different kind of life, but I let it go

'Cause he was sunshine, I was midnight
He was my opposite, my complement, my counterpart

I guess sometimes we all get just what we wanted, just what we wanted
Sometimes, we get what we want, but not in the way we expected or hoped for

And he never thinks of me except when I'm on TV
He only remembers me when he sees me in the media or public eye

I guess sometimes we all get some kind of haunted, some kind of haunted
Sometimes, we get haunted by our past or the decisions we made

And I never think of him except on midnights like this
Sometimes, I recall the memories and feelings associated with him, especially during quiet and reflective moments, like midnight
