All you talk about is the end of world
Some first date this is, nearest exit is noted
They say don’t fall in love with a dystopian girl or you’ll be sorry
In fact even doom will surely get its day
Its moment in the sun to explode it and run
Can we get a “kneel and pray”
[chorus]
Drop your bombs, we’re safe and calm in our fireproof city
Come with your best, but a permanent rest is our guarantee
Drop your bombs, we’re safe and calm in our fireproof city
You better pick your battles with a white flag in hand
We’ve dug in our heels, drew the line in the sand
My friends, don’t let your heart clumsily get in the way
Threw a watch party to see it all decimate
Thick smoke on the outskirts of town
The pale horse leads the parade
[repeat chorus]
Bring on your wrecking ball, call in the brigade
You had better come with everything
We will remain unafraid and unscatched
If there’s a tender spot, a vulnerability
A need for surveillance
In time we found the common enemy
This could the last dance
A crowning achievement
Our big farewell performance
But we now know that everything comes at a cost
Yeah we now know that everything has its cost
[repeat chorus]
