Paul Mac - As Long As I Am feat. Luke Steele

so this is it last trip to take
there's no more to fall, last call to make forcefield surround no more, no pain and things will never be the same

trigger a short sharp stream of salt
melody memories locked in vaults
dumped to ocean floor and drown
push back out until you crown

light your candles, pray to space
whatever gets you through this place
and god's the opiate of choice
a meaningless but soothing voice

and when it all just seems too much
gravity weighs until it bends
and i would give everything i've got
just to hear you laugh again
from a photo there's that smile
your child a copy of your eyes
and you are still alive
as long as i am

and though you know this day will come
you never know how hard 'til it's done
sunk in mud and locked in time
your face a tattoo on my mind

light your candles pray to space
whatever gets you through this place
and hold that memory for the rest
of whatever forever we have left

and when it all just seems too much
gravity weighs until it bends
and i would give everything i've got
just to hear you laugh again
from a photo there's that smile
your child a copy of your eyes
and you are still alive
as long as i am
