Strike the Midnight Bell

Strike the midnight bell,

or it would be hell

for the kings and the queens, 

for all the costumed angel.

And once we survive the spell,

I will be the one..... 

a poet with a tale to tell !

The rhythm of the words "strike the midnight bell" popped in my head and i followed it, that's all! but there is an underlying metaphor. Thank you very much.
