Up In Flames

Calling out across a rooftop
Blackened by the endless night
Expect to hear a silence but I know you're listening
And I haven't felt a thing in days
I know you feel it too
But if you could shoot hope my way
I'd shoot some back to you

I hope this is our last stand
And even though the world is ending you'll still be my friend
'Cause there's nothing that I would rather do
Than watch everything that I loved go up in flames, with you

Huddled down under a blanket
As the stars begin to fail
There's memories of something but I can't quite place it
'Cause we haven't heard a thing in months
These ears are no more use
But if you let me strum these strings I'll play that shitty tune

I hope it's not the last time
'Cause even though the world is ending you're still on my mind
And there's nothing that I would rather do
Than set everything I loved, to go up in flames for you.

Sending static through the airwaves
Saw the lightning in the sky
A spark has gone out somewhere, think I know the reason why
I haven't thought these thoughts in years
There's nothing coming back
So you can switch the station off, I'm sure the storm will pass

I hope it's not the last call
'Cause we've not had a drink since the sky began to fall
And there's nothing that I would rather do
Than toast everything I loved going up in flames, with you
