HAREM SCAREM
"The Midnight Hours (Acoustic Version)"
(Hess/Lesperance)

Advice from the heart
Invades as the daylight falls
The small hours crawl
As I try to ignore it all

But the silence wakes a guilty mind
And you lie awake
As your conscience tries to run and hide

But in the midnight hours
Karma gets to you for the things you do
And it all comes down
Not to what you say but what you do

You can tell yourself that it's just a game
You can fool yourself to get through the day
But the midnight hours will get to you
Will get to you

Ghosts haunt the dark
Can't lay on the bed I've made
With circling sharks I walk the edge of a blade

But the silence wakes a guilty mind
And you lie awake
As your conscience tries to run and hide

But in the midnight hours
Karma gets to you for the things you do
And it all comes down
Not to what you say but what you do

You can tell yourself that it's just a game
You can fool yourself to get through the day
But the midnight hours will get to you
Will get to you

[Solo]

But in the midnight hours
Karma gets to you for the things you do
And it all comes down
Not to what you say but what you do

You can tell yourself that it's just a game
You can fool yourself to get through the day
But the midnight hours will get to you
Will get to you

But in the midnight hours
Karma gets to you for the things you do
And it all comes down
Not to what you say but what you do

You can tell yourself that it's just a game
You can fool yourself to get through the day
But the midnight hours will get to you
