All alone here on the cliffside
the tide tugging my eyes
waiting for the day you
open up your own and see me
the bombs fell too soon
they're inbound

all alone i am searching myself
the fallout is wrecking my mind
naught but a day goes by that I can't see you
in the heat of the bright lights
cook me alive or just let me inside
it's your choice

the bombs are falling around the world
You need to see yourself my girl
no one knows it more than me
if I've got to wait for ever and ever
that's just what I'll do I'll sever the clever
you could do it but you won't so
I'll do it myself
these things always hurt when they're true

waiting for the cold embrace of a heat death
dying to know what living feels like
force me to change so I stay the same
being told to do my working
that's not living but simply existing
nothing prepared me for living in jest

the bombs are falling around the world
I need you to see yourself my girl
no one knows it more than me
if I've got to wait for ever and ever
that's just what I'll do I'll sever the clever
you could do it but you won't so
I'll do it myself
these things always hurt when they're true

the bombs are falling around the world
You need to see yourself my girl
no one knows it more than me
if I've got to wait for ever and ever
that's just what I'll do I'll sever the clever
you could do it but you won't so
I'll do it myself
these things always hurt when they're true

baby I am searching the rest of my life
the wounds of a story unwitten
coming back to life I am seeing the light
of all the problems around me
time to make them all right

the bombs are falling around the world
You need to see yourself my girl
no one knows it more than me
if I've got to wait for ever and ever
that's just what I'll do I'll sever the clever
you could do it but you won't so
I'll do it myself
these thoughts all ring true
