Escape the Stake - The Curse

My apocalypse doesn't come with a rising tide
It just settles down slowly when your hand's not in mine
And the only thing that made me feel safe is gone
Gone, gone
And I know it's in my head, and you say you love me still
But when I dream you leave me, god, it feels so fucking real
I don't want to wake up in case I find you gone
You're gone, gone

And what's the point of saving the world if the moon falls down?
What's the point of diving for a pearl just to lay it in the ground, in the ground?
Maybe that's morbid of me, but I think I have a curse, baby
You never lift it, you just make me less afraid
But I'm still afraid

A crumpled set of bedsheets and an empty pack of smokes
Sometimes the air's so heavy I think I'm gonna choke
Even after years and years prepared me for being alone
I guess it's different when you know you're missing out
And maybe if I'm good enough I'll get rid of the doubts
That tell me I fucked up and I don't know what's right for me

And what's the point of saving the world if the moon falls down?
What's the point of diving for a pearl just to lay it in the ground, in the ground?
Maybe that's morbid of me, but I think I have a curse, baby
You never lift it, you just make me less afraid
But I'm still afraid

And what's the point of saving the world if the moon falls down?
What's the point of diving for a pearl just to lay it in the ground, in the ground?
Maybe that's morbid of me, but I think I have a curse, baby
You never lift it, you just make me less afraid
But I'm still afraid
