Apocalypse, Please!

(album: Paradise - 2020)

Navigating what we should and we shouldn't do
Galivanting cavalry for a day or two
Salivating standing over forbidden fruit
I think I'm living the dream

Because relaxing can be taxing on heavy minds
And I'm not gonna waste any precious time
Not believing that this mystery can't be mine
I think you know what I mean

There's a fine line between being pessimistic
And being positive but also realistic
That if the sun was exploding
I would check out the view with you

'Cause you know that there is nothing that we can do
You know that there is nothing that we can do
You know that there is nothing that we can do
So here's to looking at you

I used to stay in bed with the TV on
Tell the people that I love that there's nothing wrong
Hide my sorrow from the sunlight till it was gone
Like I belonged in the dark

And I'm not going to waste another day
And I'm not going to chalk this up to fate
To all the losers and the liars and runaways
Keep the love in your hearts

So if the end is almost definitely certain
And it's time for us to draw the final curtain
Why not spend every moment
Being honest and free with me

'Cause you know that there is nothing that we can do
You know that there is nothing that we can do
You know that there is nothing that we can do
So here's to looking at you, yeah, yeah, yeah

One day soon you know that we'll all be gone
And the world will keep on turning like nothing's wrong
And even it will one day crash into babylon
It's the cold hard truth

Maybe what I'm saying is too out of sight
And maybe we'll return in another life
Where there won't be any sorry or pain or strife
... Good luck with all that

You know that there is nothing that we can do
You know that there is nothing that we can do
Baby, you know that there is nothing that we can do
Here's to looking at you, yeah, yeah, yeah

One day soon you know that we'll all be gone
And the world will keep on turning like nothing's wrong
And even it will one day crash into babylon
It's the cold hard truth

Yeah, yeah, here's to looking at you
