Arcade Fire - End of An Empire I-III

[Thought Art]

 

One last dance
Here at the end of the Empire
Makes me cry
Watching the moon on the ocean

Well California here is the beat
It's not half bad, but
Spend half your life being sad, whoa
Don't be scared, uh-uh
Just chronically impaired, uh-uh
Just take my hand, uh-uh
Standing at the end of the American Empire

One last song
Here at the end of the movie
They seemed so sure
At least that's the way I remember the war
What New York used to be

It's not half bad, no
Spend half your life being sad, whoa
Don't you eat, uh-uh
Half your life fast asleep, uh-uh
Feeling uninspired, uh-uh
Standing at the end of the American Empire

And we know that it's time to go
Heard the news on the radio
One last round before we go
Through the pain and the searing glow

And the oxygen is getting low
Sing a song that we used to know
One last round before we go
One last round before we go

So we slide

Didn't use to get high
Didn't use to drink any
Didn't use to think I
Could ever dream about losing you

Didn't use to get low
This time of night
And I didn't use to walk home
In the morning light without you
Without you

Didn't use to get high
Didn't use to drink didn't use to think I
Could ever dream about losing you
You, but I do

It's you and I, it's do or die
Suicide mission, baby by my side
We got one life, and half of it's gone
You know I can't sleep with the television on

Didn't use to get high
With you by my side
Leave the light on
