lyrics

A blood red sunset spilled its light across the room
With your jaw set in silhouette, I’d never seen a thing as bright as you
And in all that came to pass that day, my heart was beaten black and blue
But for a solitary second there, I’d dreamt a lifetime spent with you

But nothing makes the time stop
And I can’t make my mind up about anything

It was us against the world
Could we ever kid ourselves?

And everything left unforgiven will eventually all be forgot
When we fertilise the sacred dirt in which our earthly forms will rot
And it may be a shitty joke, but I will laugh along at least half-heartedly
Cos I got all of this for nothing, and it never asked a thing from me

But nothing makes the time stop
And I can’t make my mind up about anything

It was us against the world
Could we ever kid ourselves?
Love will always hurt
But the lack thereof feels worse
