zero-sum

they're starting to open up the sky

they're starting to reach down through

and it feels like we're living in that split second of a car crash

and time is slowing down

and if we only had a little more time

and this time

is all there is

do you remember the time we.?

and all the times we.?

and should have.?

and were going to.?

i know

and i know you remember

how we could justify it all

and we knew better; in our hearts. we knew better

and we told ourselves it didn't matter

and we chose to continue

and none of that matters anymore

in the hour of our twilight

and soon it will be all said and done

and we will all be back together

as one

if we will continue at all

shame on us

doomed from the start

may god have mercy on our dirty little hearts

shame on us for all we have done

and all we ever were. just zeroes and ones

and you never get away

and you never get to take the easy way

and all of this is a consequence

brought on by our own hand

if you believe in that sort of thing

and did you ever really find

when you closed your eyes

any place that was still

and at peace?

and i guess i just wanted to tell you

as the light starts to fade

that you are the reason that i am not afraid

and i guess i just wanted to mention

as the heavens will fall

we will be together soon if we will be anything at all

shame on us

doomed from the start

may god have mercy on our dirty little hearts

shame on us for all we have done

and all we ever were. just zeroes and ones
