As Long As I Am - Paul Mac, Lenka, Luke Steele

So this is it last trip to take

There’s no more to fall,

Last call to make force field surround no more,

No pain and things will never be the same

Trigger a short sharp stream of salt

Melody memories locked in vaults

Dumped to ocean floor and drown

Push back out until you crown

Light your candles, pray to space

Whatever gets you through this place

And God’s the opiate of choice

A meaningless but soothing voice

And when it all just seems too much

Gravity weighs until it bends

And I would give everything I’ve got

Just to hear you laugh again

From a photo there’s that smile

Your child a copy of your eyes

And you are still alive

As long as I am

And though you know this day will come

You never know how hard 'til it’s done

Sunk in mud and locked in time

Your face a tattoo on my mind

Light your candles pray to space

Whatever gets you through this place

And hold that memory for the rest

Of whatever forever we have left

And when it all just seems too much

Gravity weighs until it bends

And I would give everything I’ve got

Just to hear you laugh again

From a photo there’s that smile

Your child a copy of your eyes

And you are still alive

As long as I am
