lyrics

I'm wasting, no time here.
The last day on Earth and I'm selfish
for leaving,
you're no better for needing me here.
When the clocks stop moving and
buildings desecrate to sand,
I know I'll be the last to stand today.

Well half of me knows the other half is crazy.
There's a chance that this half might be too,
even when the clearest things seem hazy,
I still believe one thing to be true.

I packed my belongings,
a change of shirt, a notepad.
To relive the end of the world.

I trusted, the garden,
to grow me strong and honest.
Now I face the greatest freeze ever yet.

Half of me knows the other half is crazy.
There's a chance that this half might be too,
even when the clearest dreams seem hazy,
I still believe one thing to be true,
that I'm leaving just as quick as I met you.
Yeah, I'm leaving just as quick as I met you

I'm saved by a charming melody.
You're floating softly off to sleep.
But something here feels eerie,
even in your arms tonight.
I'm saved by a charming melody.
You're drifting slowly off to sleep.
But something here feels eerie,
even when you say "I love you."

Well
Half of me knows the other half is crazy.
There's a chance that this half might be too,
even when the clearest dreams seem hazy,
I still believe one thing to be true,
that I'm leaving just as quick as I met you.
Yeah, I'm leaving just as quick as I met you.

I loved you, my darling.
There was no one else above you.
In my mind you were,
the first, the last, the middle.
I woke up this morning,
I drove down our driveway.
I don't think I'm ever coming back.
