Have you been a member of The Midnight Losers Club?

 

Christmas can be a hard time for many.
Especially those in The Midnight Losers Club.

If you are, surround yourself with great friends and you'll be ok.
Salute.

Are you a member of The Midnight Losers Club?

(A lone voice whispers)

I joined last night
Went through the initiation

Got my heart broken in two
Took proof

Showed them all on the big screen

A picture of my ex-wife smiling as I stood crying

Now I wear the secret brand under my right sleeve in French

Une fois brisés, nous nous relevons grâce à l'amitié

Car nous sommes membres du Midnight Losers Club

(Once broken but we rise through friendship

For we are members of The Midnight Losers Club)

Foundation of the piece.

Do the broken belong to a secret club?

Have you been a member but unknowingly without the tattoo?

For did others help you rise after your mighty fall?

When you joined The Midnight Losers Club?

The Midnight Losers Club represents losing out to heartbreak and any future happiness with a person involved.

But rising to better things with the help of #friends
