Rusty Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Such a beautiful sight, the sun still shining bright
Such a wonderful time to think about our lives
Right by your side waiting for the end of the world
I have just realized we’ve wasted some much time


Hold your breath
Air’s running out
Hold your breath
Come with me now


I know
Everything's collapsing
But the only thing that matters
You're by my side


Such a beautiful sight, the sky is turning gray
Such a perfect time to think about the end
Right by your side waiting for the end of the world
I have just realized that we can only wait


Hold your breath…


I know
Everything's collapsing
But the only thing that matters
You're by my side


Waiting for the end to come


I know




Everything's collapsing
But I’m right by your side
