Like a Great Big Meteor

If all we have is now
Then what did we have then
As she sat across me nervously
In what used to be a den?
Back then it was 90 days
And then it was 90 weeks
And slowly we saw
It was not coming back
It was all just gone for good
I’d like to remember this all as it was
The burble and the buzz
Of surburban machines --
Lawnmowers on a Saturday twilight
With the sky soft darkening
And I’d like to say
The pain makes it real:
But it can’t make you feel
It just makes you survive --
I’d like to tell you
That we’re all alive
But we’re not alive
And it’s a great big meteor
And it’s a great big sun
And it’s the last day calling
And it’s the last day done
And it’s a great big meteor
And it’s a great big sun
And it’s the last day calling
And it’s the last day done
And it’s a great big meteor
And it’s a great big sun
It’s like the last day falling
It’s like the last day done
It’s like a great big meteor
It’s like a dying sun
It’s like the last day falling
It’s like the last day done
It’s like a great big meteor
It’s like a dying sun
It’s like the last day falling
It’s like the last day done
