Hopes are hard as rock here 
A sacrifice in the name of heat 
Hopes are all I’ve got 
Pinned on diamonds 

Stretch my body out
Before the sky
Comes down 
Stretch my palms out to the farthest stars 
Burn my shoes in the sand 
Salt myself in crystals 
Preserve some of the music 

I have a godlike desire 
To lie down in the street 
Let the waters of the gutters 
Run right over me 
Sky break open 
Pour it down into me 
But the godlike desire 
To turn a back to the breeze 
Freeze 
Change the direction 
Of the wind that moves me

For when the world ends
And someone will sing the last song
Someone dreams the first hymn
When the world will spin again

What the song says to the sound
And the flame to the flower

Stretch my body out
Before the sky
Comes down 
Stretch my palms out to the farthest stars 
Burn my shoes in the sand 
Salt myself in crystals 
Preserve some of the music

Last living inch
She comes dancing near
What the night says to the horizon
“When will I meet you?”
Bring the oceans down
Bring the skies to meet the ground

What the master to the keeper
Hopes are hard as rock here
In the name of heat

I have a godlike desire 
To lie down in the street 
Let the waters of the gutters 
Run right over me 
Sky break open 
Pour it down into me 
But the godlike desire 
To turn a back to the breeze 
Freeze 
Change the direction 
Of the wind that moves me

Bring the oceans down 
Bring the skies to meet the ground

For when the world ends
And someone will sing the last song
Someone dreams the first hymn
When the world will spin again

What the song says of the hour 
And the flame to the flower 

Stretch my body out
Before the sky
Comes down 
Stretch my palms out to the farthest stars 
Burn my shoes in the sand 
Salt myself in crystals 
Preserve some of the music
