Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fireballs falling out, out of the sky, sky
Ricocheting off the brain into the eye, eye
It's the fate we created in our mind, mind
If we stay, we'll be hated
Looks like we're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 2]
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Clearly we've been running all our lives to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 3]
'Cause they don't believe us
They'll keep us from freedom
And being, beings of light
Beacons of light
'Cause they don't believe us
They'll keep us from freedom
And being, beings of light
Beacons of light
[Verse 4]
Fireballs falling out, out of the sky, sky
Ricocheting off the brain into the eye, eye
It's the fate we created in our mind, mind
If we stay, we'll be hated
[Verse 5]
Tell me how you love me again
Tell me how you fell often, often, often
Tell me how you love me again
Tell me how you fell often, often, often
[Verse 6]
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
We're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 7]
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Clearly we've been running all our lives to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 8]
'Cause they don't believe us
They'll keep us from freedom
And being, beings of light
Beacons of light
'Cause they don't believe us
They'll keep us from freedom
And being, beings of light
Beacons of light
[Verse 9]
Yeah, so sweet (Yeah)
I guess we the roses that grew from concrete (Straight)
I can't even picture you without me
That's too sad to see like a pic of Mobb Deep (On god)
You never lied, never gave me bad vibes
And we in over our head like we getting baptized
And that's a feeling money can't buy (No, no)
Baby girl, you matter to me like black lives (Black lives)
I've been daydreaming these nightmares
Of me waking up and you not there
So crazy, my lady
I look at you I wanna have a hundred babies
Raising hell till we see heaven gates (Gates)
We gon' turn a hundred when it's TWENTY88 (Straight)
And I'ma look at you and say, aye
[Verse 10]
We're the only lovers left alive
I'm drunk under the sun
I'm drunk, baby, I'm drunk
I'm drunk, baby, I'm drunk
We're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 11]
Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Time for backwards skate
Couples only, couples only
If you don't got a lil' bit of faith, get off the floor
Couples skate backwards
Lovers only
It's the end of the world y'all
It's the end
This is for lovers only
Come on
One, one-two, one, one-two, one
Back, yeah
Slow, uh
Slow, back
[Verse 12]
We're the only lovers left alive
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Clearly we've been running all our lives to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
[Verse 13]
We're the only lovers left alive
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Clearly we've been running all our lives to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 14]
Tell me how you love me again (Tell me, tell me)
Tell me how you fell often, often, often
Tell me how you love me again (Tell me, tell me)
Tell me how you fell often, often, often
[Verse 15]
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
Tell me how you fell
Tell me how you feel
We're the only lovers left alive
[Verse 16]
We're the only lovers left alive, left alive
Clearly we've been running all our lives to survive
We're the only lovers left alive, look alive
We're the only lovers left
We're the only lovers left alive
