Armageddon by Alkaline Trio Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph
Behind your back it goes
A little something like this is way too big to miss
I got a letter in the mail
The sender failed to let me know where it came from
Opened it up and sure enough, there we were, arm in arm again
[Verse 2]
I know it's small but my last call's been called, half an hour ago
I know it's late but do you think you could at least fix it for me?
Then I'll go, I'll go alone
I swear I won't tell a soul
I'll drink this beer and write in fear of a song everybody hates
[Chorus]
Armageddon, let the light in
Before we say goodbye, give us something to believe in
Armageddon, we're not begging
For too much, I don't think
Need a goodbye kiss before we sink
[Verse 3]
I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph
Behind your back it goes
A little something like this is way too big to miss
I got a letter in the mail
The sender failed to let me know where it came from
Opened it up and sure enough, there we were, up in arms again
[Chorus]
Armageddon, let the light in
Before we say goodbye, give us something to believe in
Armageddon, we're not begging
For too much, I don't think
Need a goodbye kiss before we sink
[Bridge]
We sink, we sink
We sink, we sink
[Chorus]
Armageddon, let the light in
Before we say goodbye, give us something to believe in
Armageddon, we're not begging
For too much, I don't think
Need one last salute before we sink
I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph
Behind your back it goes
A little something like this is way too big to miss
I got a letter in the mail
The sender failed to let me know where it came from
Opened it up and sure enough, there we were, arm in arm again
[Verse 2]
I know it's small but my last call's been called, half an hour ago
I know it's late but do you think you could at least fix it for me?
Then I'll go, I'll go alone
I swear I won't tell a soul
I'll drink this beer and write in fear of a song everybody hates
[Chorus]
Armageddon, let the light in
Before we say goodbye, give us something to believe in
Armageddon, we're not begging
For too much, I don't think
Need a goodbye kiss before we sink
[Verse 3]
I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph
Behind your back it goes
A little something like this is way too big to miss
I got a letter in the mail
The sender failed to let me know where it came from
Opened it up and sure enough, there we were, up in arms again
[Chorus]
Armageddon, let the light in
Before we say goodbye, give us something to believe in
Armageddon, we're not begging
For too much, I don't think
Need a goodbye kiss before we sink
[Bridge]
We sink, we sink
We sink, we sink
[Chorus]
Armageddon, let the light in
Before we say goodbye, give us something to believe in
Armageddon, we're not begging
For too much, I don't think
Need one last salute before we sink
