End of the Line

Lyrics

[Verse]
Down by the river where the cattails grow,
Wind's whispering secrets only darkness knows,
Sky’s turnin' crimson, world’s out of time,
Hearin’ last call of the end's chime.

[Verse 2]
Old dog’s howlin', moon's gone black,
Stars disappearin', ain’t no turnin' back,
Grains of sand fallin' from the hourglass,
No more tomorrows, today’s all we have.

[Chorus]
When the world burns down to the water’s edge,
There ain't no savin', no final pledge,
Hold me close 'neath the fiery sky,
Love’s our only truth, till the day we die.

[Verse 3]
Town's deserted, shadows in the night,
Survival's the name of our last long fight,
Memories of laughter, now distant and gray,
Just you and me, babe, till our last day.

[Verse 4]
Rusty truck’s sittin' in a barren field,
Echoes of engines that no longer yield,
Barefoot trails to an old, broke-down barn,
Hopin’ to find peace in each other’s arms.

[Chorus]
When the world burns down to the water’s edge,
There ain't no savin', no final pledge,
Hold me close 'neath the fiery sky,
Love’s our only truth, till the day we die.
