Apocalyptic muse

I always knew the world would end
Sometime in my lifetime, friend
But secretly I always hoped I was wrong
Now all the movies have been made
We watch our sins being repaid
And we've finally sang up every single song

So if this is the end of everything, my friend
I want you to know what a treasure you have been
And if there is a life beyond this blue sky dream
I want you to know I will find you again
If it takes until one day short of never
I will not give up on us, not ever
I will look for you and I will find you again
If this is the end

Here's to second steps never taken
All the times we were mistaken
And plans waylaid that made the life worth living
Give me one first goodbye kiss
I thought I'd be sadder than this
Giving up and trying
The end of everything

So if this is the end of all we've seen, my friend
I want you to know what a godsend you have been
And if there is a life beyond this blue sky dream
I want you to know I will find you again
If it takes until one day short of never
I will not give up on us, not ever
I will look for you and I will find you again
If this is the end

Give me one more goodbye kiss
I thought I'd be sadder than this
Rest your mind as we watch the dying sun
Of all the roads and all the lifetimes
For you to have crossed mine
Those chances must have been so close to none
