Falling in Love at the End of the World

Someone on the radio said something about the Sun
Going out forever in a month or so
But we all knew the end was near
Nothing to be done from here
So I shake my head and off to bed I go

I drink as I lie down
And the water dribbles from my mouth
I want to count the seconds between thoughts of you
Nobody gaslights me like me
As I hold my breath and count to three like
There's no way you're thinking of me too

Trees are shaking
Windows breaking
And who am I to tell them no?
But I wish that we had longer
I wish that I were stronger
I wish a million things before we have to go

But we are here now, us two
Not too proud to say aloud
I want just this and nothing more to do
I'll make a bed with you
And I'll rest my head on you
We'll lose sleep in a better way
Pretend that nothing matters but today

It's pretty shitty timing but then when did shitty timing
Ever make a goddamn difference anyway
I think it's okay
But in the moments I'm alone I'll wonder
Whether I've been living the right way

But we are here now, us two
Not too proud to say aloud
I want just this and nothing more to do
I'll make a bed with you
And I'll rest my head on you
We'll lose sleep in a better way
Pretend that nothing matters but today

Now pieces of the sky are coming down
The ground is cracking open
And everywhere around me
I can see the lights all fading into grey
People on the street are asking me if I've been living the right way
How do you know if you've been living the right way?

We are here now, us two
And I need you to know before we go
I'm glad I spent the end with you
I'll make a bed with you
And I'll rest my head on you
And hold you while the whole world falls away
And even when it's ashes
There'll be part of me that wishes we could stay
