Someone sucked the life out of the room

When that someone said goodbye much too soon

I'd hate for you to love me 'cause

You saw me out with someone who

You read about in the news

But I guess that's what this world is coming to.

I watched as your wrist began to bruise

Threading ribbons, weaving patterns

Beautiful and blue

All your late nights came to life

And then died upon just one dislike

Never mind all the people that you moved

But I guess that's what this world is coming to.

So let's get high here in the moonlight

Even the stars go right over our head

I think I'm gonna shine in the afterlife

Leaving the fight for peace of mind instead.

So let's get high in the moonlight

Even the stars right over our heads

I know I'm gonna shine here in the afterlife

Leaving the fight for peace of mind instead.

You know that I can't stop thinkin' 'bout you

You're the source of everything I do

You brought faith to songs I sing

So I went and bought a diamond ring

I wanna spend each night here with you

Yeah you took everything I was

And you turned it into something I've become

Good god, what's a boy to do?

But I guess that's what this world

Oh, I guess that's what this world

Oh, I guess that's what this world is, is coming to

Oh, I guess that's what my life is, is coming to.
