If I Have to Die (Live at the Bathouse)
If I Have to Die
Take three
In a beautiful moment
I see the snow reflecting in your eyes
And you were just sleeping
But when you woke up next to me you smiled
There's a nuclear winter
Outside this bedroom window
It's howling down the empty street
With you here next to me
I'll go get some coffee
And we can get up slowly
For once in our lives we have nowhere to be
For once in our lives we've found some peace and quiet
But don't look at your phone
There ain't nothing there but bad news
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
Who cares about your broken heart?
The world you love is falling apart
And now my mind is racing
Back and forth between the line
Of apathy and desperation
It's enough to leave you paralyzed
My coffee cup is cooling down
When you ask what's on my mind
I tell you I've been losing sleep
As the doomsday clock ticks closer to midnight
But don't look at your phone
There ain't nothing there but bad news
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
Who cares about your broken heart?
The world you love is falling apart
And we'll never retire so we can pay off our debts
While the corporate giants wrap the noose on our necks
And the billionaires prosper on the working class backs
While the governments in boardrooms choose who's next to attack
And this war machine rages, razes cities to dust
And we fight our civil wars that exist between us
And whole continents are burning just so we can consume
No wonder all I try think about is you
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
Who cares about your broken heart?
The world you love is falling apart
Take three
In a beautiful moment
I see the snow reflecting in your eyes
And you were just sleeping
But when you woke up next to me you smiled
There's a nuclear winter
Outside this bedroom window
It's howling down the empty street
With you here next to me
I'll go get some coffee
And we can get up slowly
For once in our lives we have nowhere to be
For once in our lives we've found some peace and quiet
But don't look at your phone
There ain't nothing there but bad news
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
Who cares about your broken heart?
The world you love is falling apart
And now my mind is racing
Back and forth between the line
Of apathy and desperation
It's enough to leave you paralyzed
My coffee cup is cooling down
When you ask what's on my mind

As the doomsday clock ticks closer to midnight
But don't look at your phone
There ain't nothing there but bad news
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
Who cares about your broken heart?
The world you love is falling apart
And we'll never retire so we can pay off our debts
While the corporate giants wrap the noose on our necks
And the billionaires prosper on the working class backs

The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
So when the bombs start falling and the water is rising
The world is on fire and I have to die I don't mind
Taking my last breath in this moment with you
Who cares about your broken heart?
The world you love is falling apart
