lyrics

The ship is ready
And we’re all ready to leave
Our bags are packed up
It’s time to head for the seas
Feel like I’m falling
It’s autumn here
Don’t think I’m ready
For this brand-new year

So save me something more
So save me something pure

We broke the empire
So we could get higher
And play so all could hear
And through the empty streets
We play a brand-new beat
So loud that all can hear
But broken hearts like glass
Can cause a man to pass
We all black out in fear

You say that it’s ok
That the only way to be
Is a bumble bee

Something passes by
And we sigh, “my, oh my.”
