lyrics

I want to be with you
For a thousand years
Long after all this disappears
And when we emerge
After all those years
Then we will rule over the earth
Just like you said it would be
Just like you said it would be
Just like you said it would be

I remember when this used to be an outdoor market
Long before the bombs went off and nightly air raids started
There were grocery stores and restaurants and public parks
You could use a mobile phone or you could go out after dark

Now the broken sidewalk is a spider's web of power wires
Someone's ruuning down the street with all their clothes on fire
We don't bother learning people's names to call them by
And we don't talk that much, just try to find a place to hide

I've got secretive plans for us
But I need your unfailing trust

I want to be with you
For a thousand years
Long after all this disappears
And when we emerge
After all those years
Then we will rule over the earth
Just like you said it would be
Just like you said it would be
Just like you said it would be

We went out this morning
We barely made it back
That dumpster hiding place
Was all that kept our skulls intact
Now we've been living in the tunnel in a burned out van
Making cutlery from credit cards and coffee cans

Someone told me about Atlanta
And then heard about LA
It never crossed our minds that someday we would share their fate
That burning Citibank is belching bills into the sky
And its alarm's been going constantly for seven nights

I've got secretive plans for us
But I need your unfailing trust

I want to be with you
For a thousand years
Long after all this disappears
And when we emerge
After all those years
Then we will rule over the earth
Just like you said it would be
Just like you said it would be
Just like you said it would be
