Breathe the air again, it's a beautiful day I wish this moment would stay with the earth, some primal paradise But there you go again, saying everything ends Saying you can't depend on anything or anyone If the end of the world was near, where would you choose to be? If there was five more minutes, where would you panic and hide? Or run for your life, or stand here and spend it with me? If we had five more minutes, would I, could I make you happy? And we would live again, in the simplest of ways Living day after day like some primal animals We would love again, under glorious suns With the freedom that comes with the truth If the end of the world was near, where would you choose to be? If there was five more minutes of air, would you panic and hide? Or run for your life, or stand here and spend it with me? If we had five more minutes, would I, could I make you happy? So it finally came to pass, I saw the end of the world Saw the madness unfold like some primal burial And I looked back upon Armageddon And the moment of truth between you and me If we had five more minutes of air to breathe Then we'd ride on the ruins, but you'd spend them with me On our last huge wreck of air, we agreed I was, and you were, happy
