Lyrics

Picture yourself in a room full of broken glass
Blood on the pieces, the pieces you can't put back
A little white light in a sea gone black
My head is a room and the room's full of broken glass
You can't change me, can you save me?

Oh, clean eyes, breakin' my heart in all the right ways and
No, I don't mind, clean eyes
(Clean eyes)
Oh, clean eyes, breakin' my heart and breakin' my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes
(Clean eyes);

(Clean eyes)
(Clean eyes)

I'm a cynic, I told you, I fear what I don't believe
I don't know what this is, but this is a different beast
I check the lock on the door three times
Can't put my faith in what I can't describe
I'm a cynic, I told you, I don't believe

Oh, clean eyes, breakin' my heart in all the right ways and
No, I don't mind, clean eyes
(Clean eyes)
Oh, clean eyes, breakin' my heart and breakin' my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes
(Clean eyes)

(Clean eyes)
(Clean eyes)

Oh, clean eyes, breakin' my heart in all the right ways and
No, I don't mind, clean eyes
(Clean eyes)
Oh, clean eyes, breakin' my heart and breakin' my chains and
I don't know why, clean eyes
(Clean eyes)
(Clean eyes)
(Clean eyes)

Horror Show is the second extended play (EP) by The Midnight. It was initially released through Counter Records on October 16, 2020, exclusively through Amazon Music for streaming.[1][2] The EP was made available on all platforms on March 19, 2021, following the release of Neon Medusa as a single earlier in the month.[3]

Background and composition

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted The Midnight's plans to tour and promote their new album, Monsters. To get fans engaged with the band during the pandemic, an alternate reality game (ARG) began on September 24, 2020, and continued through October 15, 2020, with fans working together each day remotely to solve clues and discover hidden prizes. On October 13, 2020, the prize was a link to an empty Dropbox folder labeled "The Midnight - New Album". A Twitch channel by the name of "halfinlightandhalfindark" (a reference to a lyric in Last Train) was also discovered, and the channel posted a message stating "WEDNESDAY 10/14 @ 12 PM EST."[4] At that time, the EP was streamed for the first time and its title of Horror Show was also revealed. After the stream ended, it was confirmed that the EP would release on October 16, 2020. The EP's initial exclusivity to Amazon Music was in part due to the company helping fund its production. During the time of the original October release, physical copies of Horror Show were available to pre-order from the band's online store, which included a download link to a digital version of the EP including the instrumentals.[5]

Four of the six songs on Horror Show were co-produced by Essenger.[6] The album also features a new collaboration with Nikki Flores, a cover of the 1978 Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith hit single Because The Night.
