[Verse 1] It’s midnight and I’m wide awake Ceiling fan spinning while my whole chest shakes Phone face-down but I know your name Would be the first one I’d call anyway I’ve got bad thoughts dressed up like facts Old mistakes trying to pull me back Then your headlights wash across my wall And somehow I don’t feel so lost at all [Pre-Hook] You don’t ask me to explain You just sit beside the pain Like you’ve done this all before And I don’t have to fight anymore [Hook] You’re my midnight remedy The only thing that settles me When my thoughts won’t let me sleep And I’m sinking way too deep Midnight remedy Your hand resting over me You don’t try to make it disappear You just whisper, “I’m right here” When the whole damn night gets heavy You’re my midnight remedy [Verse 2] You know every version of my worst Every stupid thing I say when it hurts You never tell me I should just move on You stay until the shaking’s gone Sometimes we drive with nowhere to go Streetlights flickering over the road Your knee against mine, your hand in my sleeve And for a little while I remember how to breathe [Pre-Hook] You don’t try to make me whole You just never let me go When I’m somewhere dark inside You sit with me until it passes by [Hook] You’re my midnight remedy The only thing that settles me When my thoughts won’t let me sleep And I’m sinking way too deep Midnight remedy Your hand resting over me You don’t try to make it disappear You just whisper, “I’m right here” When the whole damn night gets heavy You’re my midnight remedy [Bridge] I don’t need saving I don’t need fixed I don’t need somebody Pretending love solves all of this I just need your shoulder Your stupid crooked grin The way you say my name Like I’m still worth believing in And maybe that’s enough Maybe that’s what love can be Not the cure Just somebody Who stays with me [Breakdown] Two a.m. Dashboard glow Your fingers tangled into mine No big speech No perfect words Just, “Stay here tonight.” [Final Hook] You’re my midnight remedy Not because you rescue me But because when I lose myself You remind me who I used to be Midnight remedy You make the darkness easier to see through You don’t promise it’ll disappear You just stay until the morning’s here And when the daylight finally finds me I’m still breathing You’re still beside me My midnight remedy [Outro] 3:42 The sky turns blue I finally fall asleep Next to you.
