"Meet Me" lyrics - ALKALINE TRIO

ALKALINE TRIO
"Meet Me"

Meet me
Beneath the iron bones of former awnings
Kiss me out in the rain
We'll see what's to become of us and our belongings
What will come of our pain

[Pre-Chorus:]
Meet me, meet me
Meet me, meet me
Kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me, kiss me
We'll see, we'll see
We'll see, we'll see
Kill me, kill me
Kill me, you're killing me

[Chorus:]
I, I, I can't believe my eyes
I just cannot seem to get my rotten head
Around this mess
Surrounding us
And I, I can't believe my eyes
I just cannot seem to get my rotten head
Around this mess
Surrounding us
And as the sky is falling
I'll fall into your arms

Meet me
Down beneath the ashes of a former skyline
Kiss me out in the sun
Can't see
Between the dancing flames and living daylights
I can't see anyone

[Pre-Chorus:]
Meet me, meet me
Meet me, meet me
Kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me, kiss me
We'll see, we'll see
We'll see, we'll see
Kill me, kill me
Kill me, you're killing me

[Chorus:]
I, I, I can't believe my eyes
I just cannot seem to get my rotten head
Around this mess
Surrounding us
I, I can't believe my eyes
I just cannot seem to get my rotten head
Around this mess
Surrounding us
And as the sky is falling
I'll fall into your arms

[Bridge:]
Tell me a story
Sing me a song
Somebody save us
We don't have long
Mommy, I'm scared (I'll fall into your arms)
Daddy, I'm brave
Tell me I'm done for
But still getting paid

[Post-Chorus:]
Control, control
Can anyone hear me?
All is lost and our ship is sinking
S.O.S.O.S.O.S.O.S
Oh yes

[Chorus:]
I, I can't believe my eyes
I just cannot seem to get my rotten head
Around this mess
Surrounding us
And I can't believe my eyes
I just cannot seem to get my rotten head
Around this mess
Surrounding us
And as the sky is falling
I'll fall into your arms
As the sky is falling
I fall
