Lyrics

Giving up doesn’t feel like the right thing to do
But we’ve got no choice
The end is coming, a new life running from the mess we made
Turned our water into shit and our shit into water
What kind of world is that for our daughters and sons?

There’s one thing that I’ve gotta do
To make sure there’s gonna be a future for you
Make my last night on earth count more than the rest
Stand up and fight when I’m put to the test

The first thing I knew that I had to do
Was to make sure that they saved a place for you
So I dug down deep and I made a deal
And I promised not to run when the shit got real

The last thing I saw as you flew away
Was the look on your face, and I have to say
That the pain that I felt when I caught your eye
Put a fear into me I could not deny

Standing by myself
Staring into space
Trying to imagine what it feels like to know that you got away
From this broken place

There’s one more thing that I’ve gotta do
To make sure there’s gonna be a future for you
Make my last night on earth count more than the rest
Stand up and fight when I’m put to the test

The first thing I saw when I closed my eyes
Was your face in a place I could not recognize
A hot red sun burned a hole into me
A big black cloud found its way over me

The last thing I felt when my heart went numb
Was a sense of relief that it all was done
The dreams of our past drew a tear from me
me
A deep dark breath found its way out of me



Now the past is gone
All there is is now
The life that your living is a gift that was given so don’t look away
While you have a choice

There’s one last thing that I’ve gotta do
To make sure there’s gonna be a future for you
Make my last night on earth count more than the rest
Stand up and fight when I’m put to the test
