《11:59》是美國基督教歌手Jonny Diaz於2007年創作的歌曲，收錄於專輯《They Need Love》中，融合當代基督教音樂與流行民謠風格。作品以深夜獨白的形式呈現個體在成年過渡期的精神困頓，呼應基督教信仰中的救贖主題。
歌詞以午夜前的最後一分鐘為意象，刻畫主人公面對現實時的惶恐與自我懷疑，通過“時間掌控者”的呼告展開心靈對話。全曲以浪子歸家的隱喻串聯逃避與接納的情感脈絡，結合生活化場景與宗教意象，最終落腳於神聖寬恕帶來的精神回歸。敘事性結構與白描手法傳遞出內在掙扎與和解的過程。

歌曲歌詞
Eleven fifty nine pm
And I lie in my bed awake
Afraid that tomorrow and all of it's problems
Are only a minute away
I guess that's how I've always been
Never content with my place
But scared at the very thought of growing up
And how I compete in that race
You are the one who controls all time
Can I bring you all of my fears tonight
Cause it's getting cold and it's sad but true
That it's been a while since I laid here with you
I have been hiding from you
Silly you know where I'm at
I guess it just took me here scared and alone
To spur on this overdue chat
Sorry that I'm rambling on
I just need you to hold me tight
And please will you stay with me until the morning
Cause I am so lonely tonight
You are the one who controls all time
Can I bring you all of my fears tonight
Cause it's getting cold and it's sad but true
That it's been a while since I laid here with you
Billions of people each with their needs
But I am so thankful that you're here with me
You are the one who controls all time
Can I bring you all of my fears tonight
Cause it's getting cold and it's sad but true
That it's been a while since I laid here with you
I know it's me who has fled the scene
And you have been waiting there patiently
Prodigal son I have chased my pride
But you're always there with your arms open wide
But you're always there with your arms open wide
But you're always there with your arms open wide
