"Everything I Love Is Going To Die" lyrics - THE WOMBATS

Today I had a big idea
I jumped up and I grabbed the coin
I drowned out the noise
There's no room for mistakes out here
Everybody wants to be the man
The singer of the band

[Pre-Chorus:]
Sometimes I go to sleep in my bed
Sometimes I stay awake, sometimes I forget

[Chorus:]
Everything I love is going to die
So baby keep your big mouth shut and stop wasting my time
Icarus was my best friend
So I'm gonna make him proud in the end
Everything I love is going to die
Is going to die

There's no experimenting here
No threesomes like we talked about
When we were blacking out
What a crazy, pranged out year
And we spent most of it kissing teeth
Locked in a quarantine

[Pre-Chorus:]
Sometimes I go to Mars in my head
Sometimes I don't leave town, sometimes I forget

[Chorus:]
Everything I love is going to die
So baby keep your big mouth shut and stop wasting my time
Icarus was my best friend
So I'm gonna make him proud in the end
Everything I love is going to die
Is going to die

[Bridge:]
Then the moment starts to pass
And I start reverting back
I start reverting back now, honey
Swap my happiness for cheques
Sell my spine to save my neck
I'm starting to forget, forget, forget

[Chorus:]
Everything I love is going to die
So baby keep your big mouth shut and stop wasting my time
Icarus was my best friend
So I'm gonna make him proud in the end
Everything I love is going to die
Is going to die
