A Match to Midnight Oil

We're on our own Haven't seen another face in—God—who knows? You'd take it slow But now I'm in control Take down, take hold You can try to turn the tide 'til I let go Fall back, then flow And pull me under If you want to rock tonight, let's roll We can watch a tragedy unfold Like we cut the brakes and lost control Separate my soul If you want to fight tonight, let's go We can set a match to midnight oil If you want to say that it's all over You can learn to live without me Up high, down low I haven't given up hope, but I'm so close It haunts my home But that's just how it goes We're in the throes Of catastrophic discontent, and—God—it shows All plans postponed And torn asunder If you want to rock tonight, let's roll We can watch a tragedy unfold Like we cut the brakes and lost control Separate my soul If you want to fight tonight, let's go We can set a match to midnight oil If you want to say that it's all over You can learn to live without me If you want to rock tonight, let's roll We could watch a tragedy unfold Like we cut the brakes and hit the road In the fast lane driving like we're insane But now it's over We're losing our composure
