Lyrics

The word on the street is it’s hotter
Than it’s been in a long, long time
They’re keeping it quiet but the riots are brewing
When the man in charge is doing the crime

They might depict us as crazy
Unfortunately, that’s what’s abuzz
Single one out for example
And say that that 's all that there was

We’re one step closer to midnight, baby
We’re one step closer to blood
If you stand on the edge of a knife for awhile
Well, eventually you’re gonna get cut

The images of violence at protests
Imposters playing roles for the gain
We know there are lies on both of the sides
And the spinosphere will call it by name

On the right, it’s a communist plot
On the left, it’s a march to be free
Somewhere in the middle, a reality riddle
You see what you hear and hear what you see

We’re one step closer to midnight, baby
We’re one step closer to blood
If you stand on the edge of a knife for awhile
Well, eventually you’re gonna get cut

The lizard might have said it the best
When he work himself up with a beer
The future’s uncertain for certain
The end is always near

So buckle up for a fire storm
Cuz the Keepers aren’t keeping the law
The moment will soon arise when
The camel’s back is broke with a straw

We’re one step closer to midnight, baby
We’re one step closer to blood
If you stand on the edge of a knife for awhile
Well, eventually you’re gonna get cut

One step closer to midnight
Were one step closer to blood
If you stand on the edge of a knife for awhile
Well, eventually you’re gonna get cut
You’ll get cut
You’ll get cut
You’ll get cut
You’ll get, you’ll get, you’ll get, you’ll get
You’ll get cut
