Lovers in Pompeii
If the earth starts to quake
And the walls come down
If my mind begins to falter
If I lose my crown
If the foundation shakes
And the floor falls through
I am acting out my pain
My wounds reveal the truth
Run for cover if the stars begin to fall
I can't protect you but I'll hold you through it all
Time will tell us
Some things never change
If the daylight grows dim
Disappears without a trace
If the clock hands all stop moving
Around an empty face
If we're injured by fate
That tries to brush away
The dreams we cast in ashes
Like lovers in Pompeii
I used to feel fearless, restless, and jaded
Desperately trying to fake it
I won't miss the signs
Not this time
Run for cover if the stars begin to fall
I can't protect you but I'll hold you through it all
Time will tell us
Some things never change
The dreams we cast in ashes
Like lovers in Pompeii
And the walls come down
If my mind begins to falter
If I lose my crown
If the foundation shakes
And the floor falls through
I am acting out my pain
My wounds reveal the truth
Run for cover if the stars begin to fall
I can't protect you but I'll hold you through it all
Time will tell us
Some things never change
If the daylight grows dim
Disappears without a trace
If the clock hands all stop moving
Around an empty face
If we're injured by fate
That tries to brush away
The dreams we cast in ashes
Like lovers in Pompeii
I used to feel fearless, restless, and jaded
Desperately trying to fake it
I won't miss the signs
Not this time
Run for cover if the stars begin to fall
I can't protect you but I'll hold you through it all
Time will tell us
Some things never change
The dreams we cast in ashes
Like lovers in Pompeii
