[Verso 1]
E
We were blind to every sign

That we should've seen

In a clear, unbroken line

Machine to machine

Our mistakes were the future
But no one could tell

Long on bitcoin and regret

With not much to show

The roaches took the kitchenette

We just let it go

Walked away as the skyline
Crumbled and fell
[Refrão]

We could have stayed

Inside the city the machines had made

But we took our time

Paint the edges of the road we're on

[Verso 3]
E
Every bit was filed away
E
The world on a drive
E
They lost Steve, but they got Ray
E
If he's still alive
F# C#m
We don't hear from the inside, not anymore
[Verso 4]
E
When we watch the wall at night
E
The tops of the trees
E
Reflect a cold and blue-ish light
E
A sudden unease
F# C#m
If there's nobody left
Then who is it for?
[Refrão]

We soldier on
(Such a short ride)

Lightbulbs and batteries are almost gone

Watch the world unwind

The color of the sky
The shape of a kiss
A
Everything I have
But not what I miss
F#m
All this time
The moon was waiting for this
[Verso 5]
E
All the rest has slipped away
E
Just me and the wall
E
I won't last another day
E
And here where I fall
F# C#m
Marks the end of a great big
Beautiful thing
[Refrão]
A
And who will see?
(Such a short ride)

There's no one left who can remember me
(Like a steep slide)
A
But today is mine
