1000 Seconds

I must admit it's a balancing act
 It looks dangerous, that's part of it
 Remember, don't look down
 ♪
 You and I standing in a crowded room
 We were pressed together but we're holding on
 Like we're all that was
 That's all there was
 In a flash of light
 ♪
 We were drunk, we were having a fight
 I was wrong, that don't mean you were right
 
 Then you played that song
 It was a thousand seconds long
 It didn't end, it seemed to play on all night
 'Cause if I remember right I fell asleep there
 Rainclouds passed and darkened more
 An evening touched by waiting for the sky burst
 Storms had gathered in crushing lines
 I surrendered to a way that I remembered you
 That's all there was
 If I were forced to choose
 What I have, I have to lose
 I need love, that don't mean I need you
 
 It started with that song
 It was a thousand seconds long
 It didn't end 'cause we never got through
 And did you think that I had planned it all along,
 Hoping not to be alone?
 Well I was there on the edge of the rush
 And did you leave because you thought that I would stay,
 Stricken with a holy fright?
 And it was clear as the night in the cold
 And I won't ever know what you're afraid of
 And when the world ends
 A thousand seconds too
 ♪
 We'll watch the time pass
 Run through the high end too
 And then we'll wait there
 A thousand seconds too
 ♪
 That's when it all ends
 A thousand seconds too
