I'll Be Gone

[Verse 1]

Ready or not, the end is near

I think it’s time to get outta here

When every fire is burning, dear

I’ll be gone

There is a time, it’s coming soon

It all could happen this afternoon

And while you’re hiding in your living room

I’ll be gone

[Chorus 1]

In the wake of the coming hour

The midnight flood and the meteor shower

I’m gonna run while I still have time

Drink a glass of the finest wine

Let me toast the end of it all

I’ll need a lift before the fall

Before the flames consume the walls

I’ll be gone

I'll be gone

[Verse 2]

You never said what you meant to say

But it’s too late for that anyway

Maybe in another life, someday

If you just hang on

I’d stick around, but it ain’t no use

Too many bodies out on the loose

But I don’t need an excuse

‘Cause I’ll be gone

[Chorus 2]

In the wake of the coming hour

The midnight flood and the meteor shower

I’m gonna run while I still have time

Drink a glass of the cheapest wine

Let me toast the end of it all

I’ll need a lift before the fall

Before the flames consume the walls

I’ll be gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

In the wake of the coming hour

The midnight flood and the meteor shower

I’m gonna run while I still have time

In the wake of the coming hour

The midnight flood and the meteor shower

I’m gonna run while I still have time

In the wake of the coming hour

The midnight flood and the meteor shower

I’m gonna run while I still have time
