about

i'm really fucking sad so here's a song

lyrics

my apocalypse doesn’t come with a rising tide
it just settles down slowly when you’re hand’s not in mine
and the only thing that made me feel safe is gone
gone, gone
and i know it’s in my head and you say you love me still
but when i dream you leave me, god, it feels so fucking real
i don’t want to wake up in case i find you gone you’re gone, gone

what’s the point of saving the world if the moon falls down?
what’s the point of diving for a pearl just to lay it in the ground, in the ground?
maybe that’s morbid of me but i think i’ve got a curse, baby
you never lift it, you just made me less afraid
but i’m still afraid

a crumpled set of bedsheets and empty pack of smokes
sometimes the air’s so heavy i think i’m gonna choke
even after years and years prepared me for being alone
i guess it’s different when you know you’re missing out
and maybe if i’m good enough i’ll get rid of the doubts
that tell me i fucked up and don’t know what’s right for me

what’s the point of saving the world if the moon falls down?
what’s the point of diving for a pearl just to lay it in the ground, in the ground?
maybe that’s morbid of me but i think i’ve got a curse, baby
you never lift it, you just made me less afraid
but i’m still afraid

what’s the point of saving the world if the moon falls down?
what’s the point of diving for a pearl just to lay it in the ground, in the ground?
maybe that’s morbid of me but i think i’ve got a curse, baby
you never lift it, you just made me less afraid
but i’m still afraid
