lyrics

The memory
The cost
And what you had
You lost
Slipped away, right out of your hands

Well I might succumb
To a feeling so dumb
The evidence is staring back at me

I just might repent
For the letters I sent
The future turning out just magically

But I might just close my eyes
Turn the lights down live in a dream
Until we collide

You promised me a nuclear war
Burned to dust at the video store
You promised me a nuclear war and all I got was sick
Styrofoam and acid rain
I wanna go back again
You promised me a nuclear war and all I got was sick
You promised me a nuclear war and all I got was sick

The fingerprints are washed
The evidence is lost
And everything is out of our hands

I'll take a chance and fly
To a beach live a lie
Somebody's sorrow your delight

I would not dare condemn
Priestess of MLM
Your crypto visions keep me up all night

But today you'll be my bride
We're on the last plane
Out of this town
All the way down

You promised me a nuclear war
Burned to dust at the video store
You promised me a nuclear war and all I got was sick
Styrofoam and acid rain
I wanna go back again
You promised me a nuclear war and all I got was sick
You promised me a nuclear war and all I got was sick
