  • The sky is falling in on you
    Crushed any happiness you knew
    The tree gave more to you than love
    It's still there but baby you're gone

    Remember you, stretched out in the sun
    All alone forever, conclusions foregone
    Will you find some kind of nothingness?
    Still and lonely like an old school photograph

    Laid yourself out under the stars
    Some peace at last so don't be sad
    A fitting end to your end
    But baby, death's our only friend

    Remember you, stretched out in the sun
    All alone forever, confusions foregone
    Will you find some kind of nothingness?
    Still and lonely like an old school photograph

    Your future glories all empty of thoughts
    There's beauty doing nothing at all
    It's what you wanted, it's what you got
    Your final search for truth has stopped

    There's beauty doing nothing at all
    Never, never stop
    Never, never, never stop
    Never stop
    Never stop
    Never stop
    Never

    Remember you, stretched out in the sun
    All alone forever, conclusions forgone
    Will you find some kind of nothingness?
    Still and lonely like an old school photograph Writer/s: JAMES BRADFIELD, NICHOLAS JONES, SEAN MOORE
