|
The streets have gone dark |
|
They've been dark for days |
|
We board up the house |
|
Hide upstairs and wait |
|
And wait |
|
Just outside |
|
We hear awful sounds |
|
Cower in bed |
|
And think of ourselves only |
|
The last lights are all fire |
|
We let the heat thrive |
|
Panicked a week |
|
Starved just as long |
|
We're two signs of life |
|
Our doors are marked |
|
Desperate chants of |
|
"Help will come |
|
Help will come |
|
Can't try to leave |
|
Help will come...finally" |
|
The last lights are all fire |
|
Let the heat thrive |
|
Turn the seas sour |
|
Bleed the ground dry |
|
I won't wait |
|
You'll give up with me |
|
No one comes |
|
And we rot in bed |
|
No one comes |
|
And the boards stay up |
