Armageddon
There is no place of safety at the end of the world
 The stars are falling, the sky is swirled
 On the ferris wheel we are twirled
 As cries of cold fury resonate
 And I‘ve lost my voice
 So I will simply follow you,
 Along this dirt road to the shore
 Where we watch the corpses float
 Beneath the foamy water
 And we wonder how we were
 Unwarned and untouched as
 The stars fall and the world is set afire
 They scream and scream and call me a liar
 But how do they think with this wreckage?
 I’m no longer smiling, I’m no longer joyous
 Why are you crying?
 It’s not hurting me, I’m not in pain
 My love, why are you crying?
 I am still here, though my I know my pulse slows
 Look not here, but to the blood-red moon
 Not into the corpse-filled water or
 At the blood-soaked sand
 Is this really all my blood?
 And still I feel it not
 Why do you cry?
 I am not worth your tears
 My love, are you sure I was ever even real?
 Look not here, but to the blood-red moon
 The stars are falling, and where is my voice
