The Doomsday Book

(album: IX - 2014)

Oh back then you were something else like the bolts from a lightning storm
Overhead the blackened skies hang down from the weight of the world
Oh and that's when the rain came down, and it filled up our empty mouths
Oh when I screamed for you but you were nowhere to be found

Oh there was fire that night and it lit up the skies like a glow
Oh and it burned our eyes, and I wanted so much just to be with you alone
But that's when the sun came up, and it seemed angry as it looked down
I know that I'd probably miss you like I miss you now
I know that I'd probably miss you like I miss you now

Oh how much time's gone by and how little we have learned
Although we keep pining for the love we're convinced we're earned
But nothing can give back what the fire has burned to the ground
Oh I wish I didn't miss you like I miss you now
Oh I wish I didn't miss you like I miss you now
I miss you like I miss you now
