Let's go out
With a bang
Let the flames
Light our way
This isn’t easy for me to do
To stop myself from asking
“What’s there to prove?”
(What’s left to prove?)
It’s all in this letter
From me to you
It’s everything, you’ve heard it all before
(Never read, I tore it right in two)
So before you turn and close the door
(Just know that I loved you)
As I take
My final breath
Just know it was floating in your lungs
With just a kiss goodnight
Or a kiss goodbye
Let’s take our last withering love
(And bring it to it’s fucking knees)
Let’s just go out with a bang
And put our lives to rest
When the bell tolls again
(When the bell tolls again)
Our names will be dancing with the dead
(Among the dead)
Hymns for our hopeless hearts
Sung into the night
The vigil will light a sorry sky
Hymn for a hopeless heart
We’ve been buried before
Under the weight of duress
Put your lips to the barrel, my dear
I’m waiting for you there
We’ll greet death with a kiss
We’ll greet death with a kiss
