| I taste the wet salt, old dirt, hot sweat | |
| Of anyone who’s ever seen this place | |
| I’m not the last one here | |
| There’s a pile of us | |
| What a long half life | |
| Don’t let it be over | |
| Now I’m getting closer | |
| I left you all you alone | |
| With a pyre and pen | |
| Said I’ll take no blame | |
| Hurl your dirt at me | |
| But it’s not the kind I feel | |
| It’s as good as it can be | |
| Don’t let it be over | |
| Now I’m getting closer | |
| Don’t let it be | |
| Our unwashed sheets, our filthy streets | |
| I didn’t care at first | |
| Everything’s been building up to this | |
| it is all that you have known | |
| Don’t let it be over | |
| Now I’m getting closer | |
| Don’t let it be |
