End Of The Empire I-III

One last dance Here at the end of the empire Makes me cry Watchin' the moon on the ocean Where California used to be It's not half bad, oh-oh Spend half your life bein' sad, whoa Don't be scared, oh-oh Just chronically impaired, oh-oh Just take my hand, oh-oh Standin' at the end of the American empire One last song Here at the end of the movie They seemed so sure At least, that's the way I remember The war When New York used to be It's not half bad, oh-oh Spend half your life bein' sad, whoa Don't you weep, oh-oh Half your life, fast asleep, oh-oh Feelin' uninspired, oh-oh Standin' at the end of the American empire And we know that it's time to go Heard the news on the radio One last round before we go Through the pale, atmospheric glow And the oxygen's getting low Sing a song that we used to know One last round before we go One last round before we go So sad Didn't used to get high Didn't used to drink, and I Didn't used to think I Could ever dream about losin' you Didn't used to get low This time of night, and I Didn't used to walk home In the mornin' light without you Without you Didn't used to get high Didn't used to drink Didn't used to think I Could ever dream about losin' you You, but I do It's you and I It's do or die Suicide mission Baby, by my side We got one life and half of it's gone You know, I can't sleep with the television on Didn't used to get high With you by my side Leave the light on
