Petal - Doomed (Cast Recording Version) lyrics

Rose: Pray for the fallen and pray for the dead You can pray all you want but no one's listening Except for the voices whispering in your head How it fills me with dread, so we'll take the fall instead Call out my fixation, my relationship with doom I regret- I didn't get- I've barely started living yet What an odd sort of comfort, to be destined to fail Isn't it ironic, brother dear? So smile It's coming down, it ends tonight No more time and no more light Try to salvage our defeat It's almost time to sleep, we'll Watch it fall, won't try to hide Waiting for our time to die And it might be a relief From this endless grief There is nothing left here for us Go and save them, reign victorious And leave me here alone With the cold inside my bones Dave: I'm not a hero, if anything I hate the fight Can't trust me to be anybody's knight, I fail all the time, but if there's one thing I know It's that time is a tempo and I've got the music in my bones so This song won't go unsung just because I've got no breath in my lungs And space might be collapsing, my light going out But I promise I am not without a cause to be devout about so never doubt This rhythm, this story, neither will repeat ‘cause I am still on fire and I've still got the beat Got my rests, my staccatos, and the triplet crash My rhymes won't be a broken record made of ash ‘Cause the fight might stop But the beat is never-ending like the ticking of a clock So I'll keep pretending, just a little more, that I can be a hero Just until we close this door on doom Both: It's coming down, it ends tonight No more time and no more light Try to salvage our defeat It's almost time to sleep, we'll Watch it fall, won't try to hide Waiting for our time to die And it might be a relief From this endless grief Rose: Dave: There is nothing left here for us Take it from the top Go and save them, reign victorious One more time And leave me here alone With the cold inside my bones
