The Beginning Of The End

There's not a closing bell
There's just an awkward glance
The lightning's a fairy tale
It's really a quiet dance
And we cut the tethered earth
And float in the empty sky
And dance 'till the daylight hurts
And there's nothing left but goodbye
This is the coming of a new kind of love
That breaks your heart for good
It's the beginning of the end of your life
But you would never know
You are the answer to a question I asked
In another life
If it's the coming of a new kind of love
Why am I terrified?
Without you I'm just a man
No longer an ancient god
A statue that's turned to sand
A stick not a lightning rod
Still you just ache in me
A fever that will not leave
The sap of a dying tree
The blade that I can't retrieve
This is the coming of a new kind of love
That breaks your heart for good
It's the beginning of the end of your life
But you would never know
You are the answer to a question I asked
In another life
If it's the coming of a new kind of love
Why am I terrified?
This is the coming of a new kind of love
That breaks your heart for good
If it's the coming of a new kind of love
Why am I terrified?
