Lyrics

Tombstones climbing up the sky
To claim the boredom in the whine of the radiator
To freeze the fates that intertwine
Unresolved and undefined in this echo chamber

Once you've given up the ghost
Just like Lazarus you'll know there's an operator
Some strange passenger inside
To that strange power I'm resigned like an iron anchor
I'm just a ghost in your stereo
The fading memory of a shipwreck in the undertow
You're just a lost song I wrote
And I'm just a ghost in your stereo
Ghost

You move on a thousand times
New lover's shadows on the blinds
Your heart's a mercenary
But like a dancer on the wire
Come the sparks of frayed desire as the fire's carried
I'm just a ghost in your stereo
The fading memory of a shipwreck in the undertow
You're just a lost song I wrote
And I'm just a ghost in your stereo
Ghost

Red, White and Bruised: The Midnight Live is the first live album by The Midnight. It was initially released on April 22, 2023, exclusively to independent record stores as part of Record Store Day 2023[1] before getting a widespread release on September 1, 2023.[2]

Background

Album trailer

On February 13, 2023, a short soundbite of Tyler Lyle from a live show was shared to the band's socials, with a cryptic date of February 16 given.[3] On that day, Red, White, and Bruised: The Midnight Live was officially announced with a small trailer and was slated for release on April 22, exclusively on vinyl through independent record stores as part of Record Store Day 2023.[4] The songs on the record were recorded throughout various shows during The Midnight's 2022 tours in North America and Europe.

1300 copies of Red, White, and Bruised: The Midnight Live were pressed across three different colors - red, white, and blue - with the color not being known until opening the record.[5][6] The album was promoted with a live acoustic performance by Lyle at Criminal Records in Atlanta, GA on the day of release.[7][8] It was hinted that the album would be made available again at some point in the future.[8][9]

On August 15, 2023, it was revealed that Red, White, and Bruised: The Midnight Live would have a full release on all platforms on September 1.[2] Heroes was released as a single from the album on the same day and was accompanied by a corresponding live music video. In addition to vinyl, the album was also available in cassette form for the first time. The digital and cassette versions contain eight new tracks in addition to the eight included on the original vinyl release.
