Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Who can say the way it's going to end?
Holy flame or ashes on the wind
Open wounds that time could never mend
Strolling through the undiscovered country
Where everybody's dead
[Verse 2]
I don't need to make the curtain call
I'm just trying to break the Second Law
Don't you want the grace without the fall?
Hoping on a cold, unerring nothing
When everybody's dead
[PreChorus]
No one wants to go it alone
[Chorus]
People
What am I without people?
Scared, corruptible people
Indestructible people
Don't you know that no one knows a world outside their mind?
[Verse 3]
I was gone a hundred thousand days
Watched my sense of self dissolve away
Woke to walk the world without a name
But in the end, it all amounts to nothing
[Verse 4]
'Cause everybody wants to know that there's a master plan
I'm just trying to shake the second hand
You and me are made of contraband
Stolen people making off with nothing
Is everybody dead?
[PreChorus]
Maybe I just want someone
Wasting my time
Chasing the want and the worry
'Cause I don't wanna do this alone
[Chorus]
People
What am I without people?
Scared, corruptible people
Indestructible people
Don't you know that no one knows a world outside their mind?
[Chorus]
People
Leave it up to the people
Ineluctable people
Still in love with the people
But you know that no one loves a lonely heart like mine
[Outro]
I wanted to be
There for all your bright anticipation
I just couldn't see
Past the dim horizons of the now
I hope you were free
God, I know that you waited for me
But if this is the end, then at least let me spend it with you
