lyrics

Lyrics:

The swaying trees, the shaking walls
The broken peace, the rain, it falls
I wait inside and hold you in my arms
The day is gone, the night is black
The drapes are drawn, the thunder cracks
The sky has died along with all the stars

I know, I know:
The sun and moon have lost their final glow
But don't be afraid
Allow yourself to feel the coming wave

Can you feel this ticking time bomb caught beneath your heel?
Can we say no matter what we'll be blown away?

Blown away

The future flickers like candlelight
The wind blows quicker - I hold you tight
We brace ourselves against the cold stone floor
We take the pictures off the wall
To see memories before they fall
From our mortal moment lasting evermore

Be brave, be brave
The final day won't end the years we've saved
Now time stands still
As we feel the cold sweat of the coming thrill

Can you feel this ticking time bomb caught beneath your heel?
Can we say, no matter what we'll be blown away?
Go all in: we'll take our chances, never fear again
Go all in: we'll stand together waiting for the end

Now we are gone
We have disappeared, disappeared from here
Now we are gone
We have disappeared, there's no more fear
And now we feel, yeah now we feel

Now we can feel the end of everything we know is real
And we can say, no matter what we'll never separate
The time is here to take our chances, forget all our fear
The time is now to stand together, make our final vow

The time is now to stand together, make our final vow
