the feast falls onto the boxer who comforts a thief who clings to the author gritting her teeth shes watched by a killer who carries a child dropped by his mother she ran for her life the boy holds on to his boyfriend starting to weep for a long lost lover who died in her sleep the end has come early look what it brought no final horses no god hold me as though its the end of the earth when the signal sounds for the fake rebirth we have nothing to show no chapter or verse so will you hold me as though its the end of the earth the earth is strewn with skeletons in hideous heaps skull upon skull till the edge of the sea and the great gold sun has set on our bones clutching each other evermore hold me as though its the end of the earth when the signal sounds for the fake rebirth we have nothing to show no chapter or verse so will you hold me as though its the end of the earth
