Midnight City

Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
The night city grows
Look and see her eyes, they glow

Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
Drinking in the lounge
Following the neon signs
Waiting for a roar
Looking at the mutating skyline
The city is my church (the city is my church)
It wraps me in the sparkling twilight

Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark

written by Anthony Gonzalez, Yann Gonzalez, Morgan Kibby, & Justin Meldal-Johnsen
performed by M83

I simply cannot stop listening to this song. It's flawless. I feel like I am always at least eighteen months behind the rest of the world when it comes to music. How did I not know of this song and this band before September of this year? Boggles the mind.
