lyrics

I will meet you down
Way down at the bottom of everything.

It was 2am, parked up at the petrol station,
We’d decided God was dead.
You were cool with that.
I'd been so unhappy for so long,
And I don’t think I could tell you.
I’d been counting on you thinking I
Would be strong enough to be worth your while.

I will meet you down
Way down at the bottom of everything.

You turned you face away, as we drowned
In the cosmic loneliness,
While 'Figure 8' played loud through the stereo.
There was no deceit, no higher brain
We embraced the overarching pain
That belied our sweet, elated freedom
To face a world devoid of meaning.

I will meet you down
Way down at the bottom of everything.
Where the tectonic plates subside.
Rip through me, burn my eyes.
You’ll feel your core divide
At the very bottom of everything.
