My feet are aching
And your back is pretty tired
And we've drunk a couple bottles, babe
And set our grief aside
The Papers say it's doomsday
The button has been pressed
We're gonna nuke each other up boys
'Til old Satan stands impressed
And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth runs to the ground
Oh girl it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves in
You put your final suit on
I paint my fingernails
Oh we're going out in style babe
And everything's on sale
We creep up on extinction
I pull your arms right in
I weep and say goodnight love
While my organs pack it in
And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth runs to the ground
Oh girl it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves...
Oh it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Yes it's you I welcome death with
As the world, as the world caves in
As the world caves in
~As The World Caves In~

because when he said
"Everybody has you up on their wall sometimes / Everybody thinks of you at night / When I say "everybody" I'm actually referring to me"
i felt that in my soul!! my bones!!
Mystery - a song analysis
once more, please listen to the song before reading the analysis. this one’s another enemies-to-lovers song, and it’s one of my personal favourites. also i believe it’s the first song for me to analyse that is not by mitski. ‘what a mystery, that i could want you still’ the singer is now with their lover, peacefully. they used to be rivals before, and they never once even agreed, but now they’re together, now they’re partners. because of so, the singer is a bit at disbelief, that they could still want their lover, but now in a romantic sense, not a ‘i-will-have-your-head-as-a-trophy’ manner. they find it to be a mystery, but one that they’re willing to unravel and crack. ‘it’s a mystery, that i would pick you ten out of nine times’ although they’re at peace with their emotions for their partner, they still are marvelled by how they would always pick their lover of all people for anything. they don’t believe, even though they know it’s true, that they would pick their lover to be their lover even in another world or another universe. it’s a mystery, one that they will never understand, but one that does not bother them, even though they do not understand it. i don’t really have much to say for this song. it makes me very happy when i listen to it, and i appreciate the two lines that i spoke of extensively a lot.
