The Midnight

The Midnight is a synthwave band composed of Atlanta-based singer-songwriter Jamison Tyler Lyle and Los Angeles-based Danish-born producer, songwriter, and singer Tim Daniel McEwan.The band was formed as a result of Tyler and Tim meeting during a co-writing workshop in 2012 in North Hollywood, CA. Inspired in part by the score for Drive and the retro synth genre growing around its release, the pair wrote two singles "WeMoveForward" and "Gloria", that would be released two years later in 2014 as part of their debut EP titled Days of Thunder. In 2016, the duo released a 12 track LP Endless Summer, followed in 2017 with the release of Nocturnal, which spent several weeks as a best seller on the music distribution website Bandcamp and reaching #17 on Billboard's … more »

Souvenirs of pioneers
Proof that the West was won
These rotten beams will tumble down
Replaced by the newer ones

Weren't we fine gunfighters in another time?
Were we celebrated writers after the war?
After the war

And history repeats itself
But I don't know what for
I've got all the souvenirs
But I can't seem to find you anymore

Souvenir (now you're gone, now you're gone)
You were here (I'm moving on, I'm moving on)
How does it feel (after I'm gone)
To be the ghost in the picture as it disappears?
Souvenir

Souvenirs of privateers
Our black flag in the sun
Was taken down and passed around
And put in a museum

Weren't we fat cat tycoons in the Gilded Age?
In flower-children costumes in the Bay
And high as a summer day

And history repeats itself
But I don't know what for
I've got all the souvenirs
But I can't seem to find you anymore

Souvenir (now you're gone, now you're gone)
You were here (I'm moving on, I'm moving on)
How does it feel (after I'm gone)
To be the ghost in the picture as it disappears?

Our past is a foreign country
The neighborhoods have changed
I was the fool who got lucky
You were the fool who flew straight

Souvenir (now you're gone, now you're gone)
You were here (I'm moving on, I'm moving on)
How does it feel (after I'm gone)
To be the ghost in the picture as it disappears?
Souvenir

The past is a foreign country
Our neighborhood has changed
And I was the fool who got lucky
You were the fool who flew straight
