A Silent Drum

I pretend the only reason I am here is to be the one that you endear 
  Grab a hold of what you fear, and erase it all 

  Oh mother, the world is wearing down and you're the only thing I need 
  The only reason I can even keep my head below the clouds 
  Without you it's pointless, alone I am helpless 
  The air interrupted by the gases that we sow 
  I can barely recognize your face, oh how it use to glow 
  I cannot stand this fucking world 

  All alone here we are, I can feel your heart 
  As it beats a silent drum 
  Now my bodies going numb 
  This isn't our end 
  As long as you're near me 
  I'm seeing clearly now 
  Let's live like it's just us 
  We can make the best of the world that they left us 

  Now I'm the one you trust 
  In the age of disgust I can help you conquer anything 
  We'll accomplish everything that comes in the midst of the end of days 
  This is our time to persevere through the greatest evil known to man: 
  The governing hand 

  Don't let me die, don't let it crush me inside 
  I only trust what these eyes can see 
  Son just open up your eyes and look past those glowing skies 
  Just recall those times that are keeping us alive 

  All alone here we are, I can feel your heart 
  As it beats a silent drum 
  Now my bodies going numb 
  This isn't our end 
  As long as I'm near you 
  Nothing can tear you down 
  Let's live like it's just you and I 
  I can build us a home from what's left of our lives 

  Smoke fills my lungs as I awaken in this hell we call home 
  But the more I reminisce of yesterday 
  I find we only need each other, not a sister nor a brother 

  All alone here we are, I can feel your heart 
  As it beats a silent drum 
  Now my bodies going numb 
  All alone here we are, I can feel your heart 
  As it beats a silent drum 
  Now my bodies going numb 
  This isn't our end 
  As long as I'm near you 
  Nothing can tear you down 
  Let's live like it's just you and I 
  I can build us a home from what's left of our lives
