Apocalypse

As the world caves in around us

And the waters start to rise

Will you reach out a hand

To help me through the night

If I can see the sunlight

Maybe I can still cling on

Through the chaos and destruction

That arrived on the front lawn

And as everything we know

Slowly fades to gray

Promise me you’ll miss me

If I’m the first to leave

Because if that’s the fate

That finds us

In this apocalyptic dawn

I will follow you

As a floating spectral guard

Doing anything I can

To protect the whole of you

But if the worst should happen

And you go before my time

I will follow swiftly

By provoking someone’s hand

Or taking matters into mine

Because without you in it

Next to me

In the good times

Or the bad

The world is not enough for me

Because you gave it all

To me
