[Verse 1]
Well, they locked me up and they threw me away
And the one comfort I would let myself take was that someday
I'd get out, and I would make it home to you
So when the guards spoke up saying on the PA
(It's an hour or less 'til we're all blown away)
I took the first chance that I got and headed for the parking lot
[Chorus]
'Cause if I only got to see you for a minute or two
Well, it would all be worth my time
Nothing mattered more, two, three, four wouldn't have crossed my mind
Oh shit, I think we'd better check the time
Woo
[Verse 2]
Pedal on the floor, a single thought in my head
With the A-Bombs a-falling it's all good in the end
Just to hold you, if only for a minute or two
So with a quarter tank of gas and just a second to spare
I swear to god the clock stopped, our gaze hung in the air
And I will hold you, even as the world blew up
[Chorus]
'Cause if I only got to see you for a minute or two
Well, it would all be worth my time
Nothing mattered more, two, three, four
Everything feels just fine
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
As the sky fell down, the voice inside of my head
Should've said "Run, run away,"
But at the end, it kept quiet, fucking quiet at last
So in the background it’ll stay
[Verse]
'Cause if I only got to see you for a minute or two
Well, it would all be worth my time
Nothing mattered more, two, three, four wouldn’t have crossed my mind
Oh shit, I think we just ran out of time
