Secret Machines – 1,000 Seconds lyrics

I must admit it’s a balancing act
It looks dangerous that’s part of it
Remember don’t look down
You were last standing in a crowded room
We were pressed together but we’re holding on
Like we’re all there was
That’s all there was

In a fresher light
We were drunk we were having a fight
I was wrong, that don’t mean you were right
And then you played that song
It was 1000 seconds long
It didn’t end, seemed to play on all night
If I remember right I fell asleep there

Rain drove past and darkened more
An evening touched by waiting for the sky to burst
Storms had gathered and crushing lies
I surrendered to a way that I remembered you
That’s all there was

If I were forced to choose
Would I have, I have to lose
I need love, that don’t mean I need you
It started with a song
It was 1000 seconds long
It didn’t end, I guess we never got through

And did you think that I had planned it all along
Hoping not to be alone
I was there, which the rush
And did you leave because you thought that I would stay
Stricken with the holy fright
And it was clear as the night and the cold
And I won’t ever know what you’re afraid of

And when the world ends
1000 seconds to
We’ll watch the time pass
Run through the high and blue
And then we’ll wait there
1000 seconds to
That’s when it all ends
1000 seconds to
