[Verse 1]
Look at the world and all the mess that man has made of such perfection
I see no good in cutting off one's nose despite a face of insurrection
It's gettin' hard to see the good, to find a way, to find a place in a place uncertain
The final chapter's near the end, so one more time, we'll tear that curtain

[Verse 2]
Remember the words of all the prophets, wise men, fools, the weary and blind
Remember the innocence of days gone by, the cruelest joke, now plagued by time
It's gettin' dark, it's gettin' cold, it's gettin' late and the pages keep on turnin'

[Pre-Chorus]
So hit bombs and light it up, enjoy the ride, for the fires, they will be burnin'

[Chorus]
So come along
We can't make love as we
Watch the world die, baby
In the mornin', if it's just the two of us
We know we've done it right
If true love truly never dies
We might live forever
We can make love as we watch
The world die

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
So come along (So come along)
We can make love as we
Watch the world die, baby
In the mornin', if it's just the two of us
We know we've done it right
If true love truly never dies
We might live forever
We can make love as we watch
The world die
The world die
The world die
Oh
