Listen, This is The End

from Last Night in America by Josh Belville

/

lyrics

this is the end, my friends
this is the part where we
cannot play pretend
we have to say goodbye
and go our separate ways

but don't you feel so sad
think of all the wonderful times we had
our brains retain those mem'ries
til the end of days

i know it isn't fair
this isn't life
this is contusion and
trauma and strife
i wish i could
make it all right
i'd do it tonight

this is the end, my love
no more stars in the heavens above
only a new moon and
a pile of listless dreams

but don't you cry my dear
the ocean is already full
of so many tears
and you've got so much life
or so it seems

i know it isn't fair
this isn't life
this is contusion and
trauma and strife
i wish i could
make it all right
i'd do it tonight

and i fell into your sky
listened to your voice
i thought it was freedom
but i had no choice
always be your lover
but never your friend
is this the end?

you never made a move
you never rejoiced
was it a depression
or was it your choice?
always be my lover
but never my friend
is this the end?

hey little misfit
hey little misfit
look into my eyes, now
what do you see?
(i see an unknown future
staring back at me)

hey little misfit
hey little misfit
listen to my voice, now
what do you hear?
(i hear a sad voice
wavering with fear)

i know it isn't fair
this isn't life
this is contusion and
trauma and strife
i wish i could
make it all right
i'd do it tonight
