I've been working with adhesives
Chains and locks and ropes and knots to tether.
But nothing's sticking to the pieces,
I can't seem to hold it all together.

But you should know
'Cause that explains why it all just fell apart.

It's not the end of the world,
Just you and me.
We're a part of it, everyone
We're a part of it, everything.
And if a nightmare ever does unfold,
Perspective is a lovely hand to hold.

Well I've been trying to ingest this
But everything to me just seems like nonsense.
And I was sure if I can get it
I guess it's time for me to grow a conscience
To combat the lapse
That explains why all of this simply collapsed.

It's not the end of the world,
Just you and me.
We're a part of it, everyone,
We're a part of it, everything.
And if a nightmare ever does unfold
Perspective is a lovely hand to hold.

It's been forever since I've gone
But I'm the Cusack on the lawn of your heart
Maybe forever 'til I go
But before then you should know
That I could tear that place apart,
I could tear that place apart.

I swear this to you,
I wish that this was not the truth
But it's something that you fell into
And crawling out is hard on you
I'm not sure it's what you want to do
Not convinced it's what you want to do.

It's just the weight of the world
Given out under the string.
And we're a part of it, everyone,
And we're a part of it, everything.
And when a nightmare finally does unfold
The nightmare finally shows
It's not the end of the world
Just a calamity,
And we're a part of it, everyone
And we're a part of it, everything.
And when a nightmare finally does unfold
Perspective is a lovely hand to hold.
