FIRSTIMPACT (2018) (Remaster) Lyrics

It started off as innocence, made sense like any other

A couple silly children want to mix and meld together through some chemical addition

As we floated deep into the stars and felt the absolution

Sure it felt great, sure it felt fire

How were we supposed to know that we were burning our own pyres?

So it would continue, travel to the city, cruise around in that old Civic

Then we'd pull into an empty lot and thrash around while we was sick

Boy those were the good days, but also they're the worst

Soon enough we'd crash and burn, don't really even know what happened

The world around us ended, nothing else was left

As far as we're concerned, the only thing was death

And so we left each other, but still we stayed together

Oxymoron of the year, while I was left in purgatory

You would go and do your thing while I would lay in bed and think

"I wonder if she's happy, I wonder if I'm breathing?"

The butterflies I used to get had dissipated long ago

They've been replaced with spiders

Crawl around inside my stomach, make me nauseous as I'm pining for the old times

Back in the beginning, run around in muddy creeks

Picking rocks and pinching cheeks, here we are, love

The world around has crumbled and I'm lying in my blood

Meteors are falling, lava channels leaking

Everything has gone to hell and now I'm left to reminisce

About our souls leaving to another world beyond this

Ozone is broken and the ice caps are melting

Debris from corporate buildings crushing those with corporate degrees

That was kind of funny

But in the end, if you can't laugh, then what do you really have?

Let's be honest here

I mean really, if you can't laugh as rebar is hurtling towards your face at like 9.8 meters per second

Then, like, what kind of person really are you?

So even as the world ends, please know that I still love you

I never stopped, not even once when I was pierced by shrapnel

So as I pull this piece of bloodied steel from my chest

I'm wondering where you are and if you're trying your very best

To stay alive and make it through or if you'll just eschew

The mortal coil we've been sold, I really hope the former

Cause we can find another world or even live among the soil this planet will become

We can find a tiny cave and burn a baby forest fire

Eat the meat of fallen fauna like Neanderthals

Or maybe Elon will survive and take us off to Mars

Either way, I hope you're strong and fighting for survival

If a crazy asshole tries to kill you, fuck 'em, eat his soul

Pretend that you're a succubus appearing for the rapture

Anything it takes just for you to stay alive

So maybe we can meet again and then at last we'll thrive

Find another civic, explore dilapidation

Help repopulate the world, start our own new nation

We can call it Candyland, a joke that no one'd get

So we can laugh as we're beget by lock of axidation

It's true we won't survive, we're bound to meet our ends

But maybe we can make them happy if we made amends

I'll keep looking high and low until I finally find you

I'll keep crawling on the ground as my face begins to thin

So if we meet again

Could you give me an answer?
