At the end of the end It's the start of a journey To a much better place And this wasn't bad So a much better place Would have to be special No need to be sad On the day that I die I'd like jokes to be told And stories of old To be rolled out like carpets That children have played on And laid on while listening To stories of old At the end of the end It's the start of a journey To a much better place And a much better place Would have to be special No reason to cry On the day that I die I'd like bells to be rung And songs that were sung To be hung out like blankets That lovers have played on And laid on while listening To songs that were sung At the end of the end It's the start of a journey To a much better place And a much better place Would have to be special No reason to cry No need to be sad At the end of the end

It's the way of the world, sadly Lovers choose their lovers, badly Oh, I should've asked for one more minute, one more minute next to you But I never had the courage, I couldn't talk when you moved So I choked and stretched my bones, to the point of bleeding And you're moving on, moving on, moving on But tell me, what was I supposed to do? A done deal decided and I signed it too At least the end of the world is quite the view It's thе way of the world, sadly Lovers choose thеir lovers, badly But tell me, do you look at her when she gives you her body? Do you grab her head with both hands? Do you let love thrive, do you let love thrive? Are you soaked and drenched in gold, in your bed, in the morning? Do you beg her for one more minute, one minute more? But tell me, what was I supposed to do? A done deal decided and I signed it too At least the end of the world is quite the view A done deal decided and I signed it too At least the end of the world is quite the view But tell me, do I ever cross your mind? Are you proud of how you survived? She puts her head on your shoulder And I see the way your eyes linger But tell me why it seems so different with her?

I can hear your heartbeat I've tried so hard to forget I'm being buried under the memory of All of my regrets I've spent ages losing sleep While strangers warmed your bed I know it's over, please be over There's nothing left to save Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Your voice is ringing in my ears But I can't see you talk You could tell me to go straight to hell And I'd enjoy the walk I've spent ages losing sleep While strangers warmed your bed I know it's over, please, be over There's nothing left to save Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me If I could make it simpler If I could get back to the start I would keep you even closer So that I could hear your heart But your pulse has started fading I'll try to hold on to the sound I know it's over, please be over 'Cause I'll just let you down Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me Let me let you down I can't watch you drown with me

You break, you mend, blend in with the madness You try to love again, 'cause what else could happen? You're trapped at the bottom of your wishing well, buried underneath the wealth Penny after penny, reaching for a hand to pull you out, and then You wake up to sirens and quakes in your bed Searching for something to push you through the day Aching for meds that could take the pain away Every second, every day (you're waiting for the) Day to come when they will notice (it's time to wake up now) Fighting battles at your lowest (your fire is dying out) Dragging every step forward (but it won't happen again) And I'm not gonna pretend (I don't want the money) (Want the money) Can't say I'm mad, this is entertainment But I want what they have, and I'm gonna take it And I'm so sorry if I'm cynical, my water's full of chemicals I don't know what I'm made of anymore You wake up to sirens and quakes in your bed Searching for something to push you through the day Aching for meds that could take the pain away Every second, every day (you're waiting for the) Day to come when they will notice (it's time to wake up now) Fighting battles at your lowest (your fire is dying out) Dragging every step forward (but it won't happen again) And I'm not gonna pretend (I don't want the money) Want the money Want the money It's time to wake up now, your fire is dying out But it won't happen again And I'm not gonna pretend (I'm waiting for the) Day to come when they will notice (it's time to wake up now) Fighting battles at your lowest (your fire is dying out) Dragging every step forward (but it won't happen again) And I'm not gonna pretend (I don't want the money) Want it, I want it all Want it, I want it all
