Lyrics[edit]

    remember when i took you
    up to the top of the hill?
    we had our knives drawn.
    they were as sharp
    as we were in love.
    if god crossed us
    we'd take all his drugs,
    burn his money
    and his house down,
    and wait for the fire to spread.
    
    but sometimes hate is not enough
    to turn this all to ashes.
    together as one
    against all others
    break all of our wings to
    make sure it crashes
    now we're running to the edge of the world
    running running away
    we're running to the edge of the world
    but i don't know if the world will end today
    
    I had no choice,
    I erased the debt of our family.
    I let you say goodbye 
    with lips like dynamite.
    And everyone
    turned their backs
    because they knew
    when we held on tight
    to each other,
    that we were something
    fatal
    that fell into the wrong hands.
    
    but sometime hate is not enough
    to turn this all to ashes
    together as one
    against all others
    break all of their wings and
    make sure it crashes
    
    we're running to the edge of the world
    running running away
    we're running to the edge of the world
    but i don't know if the world will end today
    
    i don't seek death
    i seek destruction
    until death we see destruction
  
    we don't seek death
    we seek destruction
    until death we seek destruction
    
    we're running to the edge of the world
    running running away
    we're running to the edge of the world
    but i don't know if the world will end today
    we're running to the edge of the world
    running running away
    we're running to the edge of the world
    but I don't know if the world will end today
    
    I can see a new beginning
    rise behind the sun
    but we can never catch up to it
    as fast as we run
    
    I can see a new beginning
    rise behind the sun
    but we can never catch up to it
    as fast as we run
    I can see a new beginning
    rise behind the sun
    but we can never catch up to it
    as fast as we run
    
    I can see a new beginning
    rise behind the sun
    but we can never catch up to it
    as fast as we run
