Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
It started off as innocence, made sense like any other
A couple silly children want to mix and meld together through some chemical addition
As we floated deep into the stars and felt the absolution
Sure it felt great, sure it felt fire
How were we supposed to know that we were burning our own pyres?
So it would continue, travel to the city, cruise around in that old Civic
Then we'd pull into an empty lot and thrash around while we was sick
Boy those were the good days, but also they're the worst
Soon enough we'd crash and burn, don't really even know what happened
The world around us ended, nothing else was left
As far as we're concerned, the only thing was death
And so we left each other, but still we stayed together
Oxymoron of the year, while I was left in purgatory
You would go and do your thing while I would lay in bed and think
"I wonder if she's happy, I wonder if I'm breathing?"
The butterflies I used to get had dissipated long ago
They've been replaced with spiders
Crawl around inside my stomach, make me nauseous as I'm pining for the old times
Back in the beginning, run around in muddy creeks
Picking rocks and pinching cheeks, here we are, love
The world around has crumbled and I'm lying in my blood
Meteors are falling, lava channels leaking
Everything has gone to hell and now I'm left to reminisce
About our souls leaving to another world beyond this
Ozone is broken and the ice caps are melting
Debris from corporate buildings crushing those with corporate degrees
That was kind of funny
But in the end, if you can't laugh, then what do you really have?
Let's be honest here
I mean really, if you can't laugh as rebar is hurtling towards your face at like 9.8 meters per second
Then, like, what kind of person really are you?
So even as the world ends, please know that I still love you
I never stopped, not even once when I was pierced by shrapnel
So as I pull this piece of bloodied steel from my chest
I'm wondering where you are and if you're trying your very best
To stay alive and make it through or if you'll just eschew
The mortal coil we've been sold, I really hope the former
Cause we can find another world or even live among the soil this planet will become
We can find a tiny cave and burn a baby forest fire
Eat the meat of fallen fauna like Neanderthals
Or maybe Elon will survive and take us off to Mars
Either way, I hope you're strong and fighting for survival
If a crazy asshole tries to kill you, fuck 'em, eat his soul
Pretend that you're a succubus appearing for the rapture
Anything it takes just for you to stay alive
So maybe we can meet again and then at last we'll thrive
Find another civic, explore dilapidation
Help repopulate the world, start our own new nation
We can call it Candyland, a joke that no one'd get
So we can laugh as we're beget by lock of axidation
It's true we won't survive, we're bound to meet our ends
But maybe we can make them happy if we made amends
I'll keep looking high and low until I finally find you
I'll keep crawling on the ground as my face begins to thin
So if we meet again
Could you give me an answer?
