Rose: Pray for the fallen and pray for the dead
You can pray all you want but no one's listening
Except for the voices whispering in your head
How it fills me with dread, so we'll take the fall instead
Call out my fixation, my relationship with doom
I regret- I didn't get- I've barely started living yet
What an odd sort of comfort, to be destined to fail
Isn't it ironic, brother dear? So smile
It's coming down, it ends tonight
No more time and no more light
Try to salvage our defeat
It's almost time to sleep, we'll
Watch it fall, won't try to hide
Waiting for our time to die
And it might be a relief
From this endless grief
There is nothing left here for us
Go and save them, reign victorious
And leave me here alone
With the cold inside my bones
Dave:
I'm not a hero, if anything I hate the fight
Can't trust me to be anybody's knight, I fail all the time, but if there's one thing I know
It's that time is a tempo and I've got the music in my bones so
This song won't go unsung just because I've got no breath in my lungs
And space might be collapsing, my light going out
But I promise I am not without a cause to be devout about so never doubt
This rhythm, this story, neither will repeat ‘cause I am still on fire and I've still got the beat
Got my rests, my staccatos, and the triplet crash
My rhymes won't be a broken record made of ash
‘Cause the fight might stop
But the beat is never-ending like the ticking of a clock
So I'll keep pretending, just a little more, that I can be a hero
Just until we close this door on doom
Both:
It's coming down, it ends tonight
No more time and no more light
Try to salvage our defeat
It's almost time to sleep, we'll
Watch it fall, won't try to hide
Waiting for our time to die
And it might be a relief
From this endless grief
Rose: Dave:
There is nothing left here for us Take it from the top
Go and save them, reign victorious One more time
And leave me here alone
With the cold inside my bones
