Some Say The World Will End In Fire - Tumblr Posts

I've got a ticket to the end of the world.

Front row seats, you might say.

Would you hold my hand as we watch the earth collapse?

We could watch the rising flames.

Although it could just as well be icy frost.

We'll know very little either way.

I've got a ticket to the end of the world.

The path to get there might be a bit fucked.

But we could stand hand in hand

As the warmth of the explosions flushes our cheeks.

I'd like to have known who we could've been

But the roads are too murky to see.

I'd like to think that we could have been green

But that all depends on the sea.

So, would you join me at the end of the world

We could watch the last sunset together?

Would you stay even as it all fades away,

So we'd know that we had each other?
