Everything goes silent (tik tok) but only for a second (tik tok)
Everybody knows what's coming, now the curtains drop

No, I don't remember everything, and I may not remember how it felt
But I do know one thing, it was the best night of my life
And if you look at the pictures, you can tell an hour till midnight
Is when she took the stage all by herself

In the same time frame almost a year later, I'm at the
Start of where she is now hoping one day I'll make it on
Stage in a sparkly gown

But for now, and I don't know why, I've got a magic time of the night
It's when the gears start turning and the words fall through
I don't have time to doubt it
I won't leave you new.

Because it's hard and if someone asked me, I really don't
Know, will this ever rise up will there ever be a show
Truth being, I don't know

Well, I guess there's no harm in trying and my dream, it's
Something I rely on, because I know it takes more to get there
Than just pretty eyes and blonde hair
And even if my luck strips bare, I won't give it one care,
Cause God, I really want to get there.

11 o'clock (tik tok) I know it by the sound (tik tok)
Yes, I'm still up, but I can't put it down
Oh, I feel a little guilty (tik tok) and I know they're coming soon
And they're going to say, Lily, put it down you know you have school
(tik tok) then I'll obediently put it away
Fake fall asleep, but I know in my head that I'll be up for the next day
Because in my head, I know an hour till midnight is my only chance
If I want to get it right. I've got to do this tonight (tik tok)
I've got to do this now (tik tok) because

It's the same time frame Almost a year later, and I'm at the start
Of where she is right now I'm hoping one day I'll make it on stage,
Hair pinned up with a sparkly gown
But for now, and I don't know why when the stars light up in the sky
I wish the magic time of the night
Oh, it's when the gears started turning and the words fell through
Too late, I don't have time to doubt it
Now it's just time to wish I'm going through
