about
the last song
lyrics
It shouldn't hurt until you're halfway
breaking up the aching with your stride alone.
Pushing through to noble endings.
Why do I keep putting on the same old broken
the same old broken head I have
and I
hurdle the barriers one by one.
this should be you and not me.
Up there ahead of this
and I
tear my whole body to smithereens
this should be you and not me.
but that is the one thing that
you don't see
I am all the broken glass and picture frames
consumed by all the worthless handshakes
but still i long for everything i know is just beyond my grasp
i'm reaching out
i'm reaching
and still with all of these songs that i sing
i mourn the end of the world
i mourn the end of our love
i mourn the end of the year.
with all of these songs that i sing,
i sing for things i have loved
i sing for things i still have
and sometimes it is all i am
