If this were my last day on earth
I wouldn't cry
If you tried to sell me another year or two
I wouldn't buy
There's something dark,
Ugly but beautiful,
Crawling underneath my skin
Not every black thread
Sew something suitable
So tell me how you know so much
About somewhere you've never been
Picture frame, picture perfect,
Picture all you've ever wanted
And since you refuse to picture both
Does that make you safer,
Or more likely to be haunted?
I've come a long way, travelled so far
Searching out this meeting of the minds
But if eyes are the window to the soul
You've drawn the blinds,
Drawn the blinds,
Drawn the blinds
If this were my last day on earth
I wouldn't cry
Classic take on an old modern wake
To say goodbye
Simply charmed, a little dangerous
Never too alive in the morning
We came unarmed,
But there was change for us
So holding all this broken,
Not as sudden as you say
So wear, my sweater
And die by your own hand
You swore you could do so much better
So there, now's your chance
I thought I was contributing to some sort of dialogue
But now I can see, I'm just part of the noise and insanity
And I love the way this feels but get off me
The final play is just the last of the drops
Your hoodlum boys and you box of craft
The breakfast you made were the best of the best
Love cardiac snap crackle open my chest
Watch me write, twist and shout
Duck as Pandora flies out
Duck as Pandora flies out out out
Duck as Pandora flies out
If this were my last day on earth
I wouldn't cry
If you tried to sell me another year or two
I wouldn't buy
