Final Breath

There's no more time. It's gone away.
We cannot ask for one more day.
We should have known it'd come to this,
So I say this once with my final kiss..

[Verse 1]

I'll miss the sky so very pure,
I'll miss the pain that I endure.
I'll miss your smile that fades away,
I'll miss the fires in which we play.
I'll miss the dancing with death,
I'll miss the life in every breath.
But most of all, much more than this,
I'll miss the moments when we kiss.

[Chorus]

And though the stars begin to fade,
Their light remains in what we've made.
A fleeting spark, a burning fire,
A song of loss, yet hearts aspire.

[Verse 2

I'll miss the days we ran away,
And I'll miss all the days we stayed.
I'll miss the sunlight on your face,
An image time could not erase.
I'll miss the fighting, yes, it's true,
I'll miss the fire inside of you.
But most of all, much more than this,
I'll miss the moments when we kiss.

[Chorus]

And though the stars begin to fade,
Their light remains in what we've made.
A fleeting spark, a burning fire,
A song of loss, yet hearts aspire.

[Outro -

And when they brought all their pain,
They drove a billion minds insane.
But you sheltered me, locked it away,
To be released this very day.

And when you took her from me,
You set all of that pain free.
I'll burn you all to less than dust—
You should not have come fuck with us.
