lyrics

Fireworks light up your eyes
As they dance across my skin
Light up the night.
Hold my hand and take my pride
Well I guess that pride’s a sin
The lights are falling

And if I never see you again
I guess we’ll say that this end went to plan
But I still feel your heartbeat through my hand

The End of the World
And I’m still trapped in my dreams
Stay and you can hold my hand
We’ll never leave this last parade

The crowd is cheering for the band
As they march into the fire
Can you hear the drums?
And there we’ll make our last stand
As we kneel upon our pyre
The drums are burning

And now I’ll never see you again
I guess I’ll tell them that that was my plan
But I still feel your heartbeat through my hand

The End of the World
And I’m still trapped in my dreams
Stay and you can hold my hand
We’ll never leave this last parade

Drummers screaming
You boy, you’re dreaming
Run while you can
Turn away
You can’t bear the pain
Let go of my hand

The End of the World
And I’m still trapped in my dreams
Stay and you can hold my hand
We’ll never leave this last parade
