Craig Cardiff - The Very Last Night Of The End Of The World lyrics

Big news burst over frequencies
Saying 'Peril! C'est Tout! C'est le fin'
Talking heads assessed best outcomes
In the end, all agreed things would end bad

She said 'I'm sick of your cleverness'
Spat, fence-sitter! But i'd lost the thread
She said 'I'm leaving you tonight, I mean it
I'm leaving with Quebec'
I'm leaving california detroit, halifax

I'm leaving all of you
So you can't leave me back

(on what we later learned was)
Thе Very Last Night of The End of The World
If this is all you gеt, how will it be spent?
Ashamed? or Alone? Angry? Drunk?
Shouting blame, or maybe

(or better spent) Fearless, Joyous, Kissing


Laughing, Dancing
Holding onto hope as long as
Hope can be held onto
It's your last little lie
Your last cigarette
Your last sip of alcohol
A love song's pirouette
The You the song gets sung to
With imploring convincing hands
Singing 'Blue skies would be bluer if you'd
Just give this love a chance'

After leaving Quebec she abandoned Berlin
Got out of Chicago when the air got thin
Fleeing Paris burning Sicily
The Lakes drank up Toronto
The Vampires drank Calgary

She said im only leaving you first
So you know how much you love me
I’m only leaving you first so you
Know how much you need me

(on what we later learned was)
The Very Last Night of The End of The World
If this is all you get, how will it be spent?
Ashamed? or Alone? Angry? Drunk?
Shouting blame, or maybe
(or better spent) Fearless, Joyous, Kissing
Laughing, Dancing
Holding onto hope as long as
Hope can be held onto

(on what we later learned was)
The Very Last Night of The End of The World
If this is all you get, how will it be spent?
Ashamed? or Alone? Angry? Drunk?
Shouting blame, or maybe
(or better spent) Fearless, Joyous, Kissing
Laughing, Dancing
Holding onto hope as long as
Hope can be held onto
