I wish you would end me
I can't live without the one I love
The world's burning outside, but not in my head
There, only love remains
Forever shining like a satellite
But now further away than it used to be
I can't live without my love
Please bring my satellite back to me
The fires in the distance are growing
Closer and hotter and evermore angry
The dawn is fading
The dawn is fading to perpetual black
How long has it been?
It seems to be everything now
The world burns and everything dies
And it feels like home
What a miserable world
When there's comfort in cracking bone
I'd do anything anything for you now
I'd do anything to bring you home
The fires in the distance are growing
Closer and hotter and evermore angry
The dawn is fading
The dawn is fading to perpetual black
Even if I have to die
Whatever it takes, my love
The lights fade under a blanket of smoke
I wonder if we ever had a chance?
I feel the fire on my fingers
Burning away the hope I had left
My eyes are fading
My eyes are fading to perpetual black
