I feel the top of the roof lift away Everyone below in disarray Watching the stars flicker and fade Feigning a care that's never portrayed Truth is, I never felt it here Nor did anyone else, that's clear Can't you see it's slipping through our grasp? Our clothes too often torn and frayed Our teeth clenched in futile displays We hold on as long as we may But I just can't, I just can't accept this fate I just can't accept it, no way And I just won't, I just won't embrace this fate I just won't accept it, not today.
