[Intro] Is it late Or is it early Is that light the sun? Or the cities burning? [Verse] And so it begins to end As darkness falls upon the land There is a shadow on the earth And blood-red skies in the air The righteous say it will be fine You know they'll all be left behind The first's a lie the lie is first And they've all been led astray [Chorus] So say goodbye to all your friends And take your chosen partner's hand There's not a thing left to defend And finally it begins to end So say goodbye to all your friends Maybe you'll be together when There's not a thing left to defend Finally it begins to end [Verse 2] The light is dying now for sure And we don't have to wait no more This crooked road has set us straight The oceans boil and it's too late The darkness moves to snuff the flame And everybody gets the blame There's not a thing left to defend Finally it begins to end [Chorus] So say goodbye to all your friends And take your chosen partner's hand There's not a thing left to defend And finally it begins to end So say goodbye to all your friends Maybe you'll be together when There's not a thing left to defend Finally it begins to end
