Lyrics for Duet
Do you feel left behind? Like there's something not right? I don't think I've been connected But of all the dead volcanos on Earth You just happened to retch and roll through mine There were fistfuls of hair 'round the foot of my chair And acres of screens before me But breathing out, I swear you were real You were there You were there You were there for a while But I don't know what's real and what's going on And I don't wanna be here when the sky is gone (I just can't keep up with it, I) I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired (Heaven's got me something more) I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired It was sold with a wink, it was slipped in my drink A necropolis for the taking But all the cities flow into one And there's nothing but knives and fears and forks Seems the more I find out, the more I'm sure of it, girl And baby, I get the feeling There's somewhere darkened over it And it's here (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin', I) And it's here (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin', I) And it's here for a while (I feel it coming, one, one step from nothin', I) (I-I, I-I) But I don't know what's real and what's going on And I don't wanna be here when the sky is gone (I just can't keep up with it, I) I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired (Heaven's got me something more) I don't wanna think about it all, I'm tired But I can hear them plundering the streets at night You never should've told them what you have inside And I don't want my children in an endless race And I don't wanna wait to see what else they take (Sulphur howling over you and) And all that matters now is that we don't let go (Black caldera ash and falling) And you can be my wonder in my time of woe (Tarred and feathered genii) If it's gonna happen, let it happen now (Acid in the tears alone) If it's gonna happen, let it happen now!
