The days count me down
hits close to home now
and i don't
so i'll pause like it sunk in
but i don't listen
i never listen

it'd break your heart were i
killed by a tidal wave an ocean away
torn apart by the coral
trying to breathe

this hope to grow old
is a joke now
and it gets funnier
everytime i tell it

so here we are now
broken schoolboys in love
with a girl who is no more alive than i
