[Verse]
EHow could we sleep when we know that it’s ending?
N.C.
We’re awake ‘cause there’s no point in pretending
Athere’s a man with a beard waiting for us,
Bdressed in white with his angels in a chorus.
EHow could we sleep when we’ve made you a promise
N.C.
we’d be together? No we’re not at all dishonest.
ASo take our hands, come along to the black hole
Band take a ride. Let's go!
[Verse]
EHow could we sleep knowing well that his judgment
Enever errs on the side of the conflict?
AYou’ve gotta know that his mind’s all but made up,
Bso we escaped and now
[Chorus]
EI can tell you’re nervous, don’t be,
everything will be fAine.
Compelled to stay behind? I wish we could honeBy, but
[Verse]
EHow could we sleep when the story isn’t over?
EWhether or not there’s a field full of clover
Awe could run through in infinite elation,
Bwe’d always know that we missed the termination.
EHow could we sleep having left you behind? Well,
Earen’t you glad that we came back to dispel
Aall the rumors waiting for you on your death bed?
BAnd let you know the naked truth about them instead?
[Chorus]
EI can tell you’re nervous, don’t be,
everything will be fAine.
ACompelled to stay behind? I wish we could honey, but
Ewhy dispel the notion that the singularity’s
Ashine is all illusion? Maybe that’s what heaven is
[Bridge]
NeverC#mmind fuck your position, come on, wBhy won’t you just listen? '
Cause I’m gEuaranteeing there’s no hope at all!
Close your C#meyes and lose your consciousness; but Bno need to abandon it,
just sEtep into the darkness, lean and fall.
C#mCrushed into oblivion, your sBense of time collapsing in
will fEeel like never-ending, wait and see.
I’m sC#mcreaming so you’ll listen! I’ll say aDgain, fuck your position!

[Verse]

How could we sleep when we know that it’s ending?

N.C.

We’re awake ‘cause there’s no point in pretending

there’s a man with a beard waiting for us,

dressed in white with his angels in a chorus.

How could we sleep when we’ve made you a promise

N.C.

we’d be together? No we’re not at all dishonest.

So take our hands, come along to the black hole

and take a ride. Let's go!

[Verse]

How could we sleep knowing well that his judgment

never errs on the side of the conflict?

You’ve gotta know that his mind’s all but made up,

so we escaped and now

[Chorus]

I can tell you’re nervous, don’t be,

everything will be fine.

Compelled to stay behind? I wish we could honey, but

[Verse]

How could we sleep when the story isn’t over?

Whether or not there’s a field full of clover

we could run through in infinite elation,

we’d always know that we missed the termination.

How could we sleep having left you behind? Well,

aren’t you glad that we came back to dispel

all the rumors waiting for you on your death bed?

And let you know the naked truth about them instead?

[Chorus]

I can tell you’re nervous, don’t be,

everything will be fine.

Compelled to stay behind? I wish we could honey, but

why dispel the notion that the singularity’s

shine is all illusion? Maybe that’s what heaven is

[Bridge]

C#m B

Nevermind fuck your position, come on, why won’t you just listen? '

Cause I’m guaranteeing there’s no hope at all!

C#m B

Close your eyes and lose your consciousness; but no need to abandon it,

just step into the darkness, lean and fall.

C#m B

Crushed into oblivion, your sense of time collapsing in

will feel like never-ending, wait and see.

C#m D

I’m screaming so you’ll listen! I’ll say again, fuck your position!

Eb E

What do I have to say to make you believe me? Oh, fuck!

[Chorus]

I can tell you’re nervous, don’t be,

everything will be fine.

Compelled to stay behind? I wish we could honey, but

why dispel the notion that the singularity’s

A E

shine is all illusion? Maybe that’s what heaven is

[Outro]

E B

Heads were hung and tears were shed

E B

Facing all but certain death

But some of us decided

B A

Our last breath wouldn't exit

As a gas.
