Lyrics
Spent your best years with someone else
left me sitting on the shelf
the things you miss
you never knew exist.
Spent your best years with someone else
my expiration date went south
now it tastes like sour grapes when we kiss.
So they’ll set you back and wreck you
and say you don’t belong
as the satellites they fall from outer space
sitting there like vultures on the piles of their bombs
watching as this world blows away.
Spent your best years with someone else
left me sitting on the shelf
the things you miss
you never knew exist.
I made mistakes and I’ll admit that
but all I remember is I was drunk as shit
and oh the way that we kissed.
So they’ll set you back and wreck you
and say you don’t belong
as the satellites they fall from outer space
sitting there like vultures on the piles of their bombs
watching as this world blows away.
The sirens go off
then we’ll go up
to the rooftops
watch this whole world blow up.
Then there will be no hope for tomorrow
there will be no more yesterdays
throw regret to the wings of this atomic wind
and we’ll watch as this world blows away.
So they’ll set you back and wreck you
and say you don’t belong
as the satellites they fall from outer space
sitting there like vultures on the piles of their bombs
watching as this world blows away.
The sirens go off
then we’ll go up
to the rooftops
watch this whole world blow up.
Then there will be no hope for tomorrow
there will be no more yesterdays
throw regret to the wings of this atomic wind
and we’ll watch as this world blows away
we’ll watch as this world blows away
we’ll watch as this world blows away
we’ll watch as this world blows away
