Apocalyptic by Kris Kelly Lyrics
His innocence fell with his clothes to the floor
In a pile of superhero PJs
The day the seed was first planted in him
From that a noose grew around his throat
He left him hanging from the family tree
Dripping out white into the river down below
Rapids of venom slowing eating him away
Flowing like fire until he overflows
And as the bullet enters in and out of him
Is this part of His plan?
Can he heal the damage that shred right through his soul?
So apocalyptic
And the light was within his reach
But the will moved through him like a slug
Both of his hands were in fists, body frozen
He is a boy who knows how it feels to break
In a way he was yours and she was mine
She would shrink me down until I imploded
Still the child made a superhero out of her
Even with her nail marks along my throat
My home was always on the edge of a steep cliff
So it was the only place I knew to build our own
Now we’ve both fallen down into the river below
And for me to stay above I must hold you down
We recreate the chaos
It feels so safe inside the familiar pain
But we are pedaling backward, cycling through our past
So apocalyptic
And the light is within our reach
But the will moves through us like a slug
Both of our hands are in fists, bodies frozen
We’re just two boys who know how it feels to
To break down, to break up, break in two
Now he’s reaching out a hand
Take his hand, set him free
A kiss for that wounded child
Kiss his cheek, set him free
We are both strong enough to rescue them
We are warriors of the light
You’ve never been stronger than you are today
Now let’s open up the sky
Cause we are pure love
And it’s here and it’s free
Come take my hand, my love
We are free, we are free ...
