under the pictures


[[ "they" is someone undefined, indefinite, unlikely, impossible, discovering the remains of the last of humanity huddled in our tunnels/caves ]] 


if they come for us
they will come for us
down in the tunnels

maybe they'll find us
what is left of us
under the pictures

we drew on the walls
pictures of animals
running for their lives
from us 

if they come on us
bones and dust of us
down in the tunnels

let them laugh at us
all that's left of us
under the pictures

we drew on the walls
pictures of animals
running for their lives
from us

down to the caves

[[ A song about love at the end of our time ]]


let's go down to the caves today 
and carve our names
let's go down to the caves today
and count the waves 

when this city falls in the sea
that's when you'll marry me
my stranger
that's when you'll marry me

when the ocean swallows this town   
that's when we'll settle down
my stranger
that's when we'll settle down
