[Verse 1] The harbor bells are choking on the salt Your paper map is burning in my hands The river backs away from every door And all the crows have left the clocktower [Chorus] When the last wall falls, call my name I will answer through the ash and rain If the whole wide world is ending tonight Stay beside me till we lose the light [Verse 2] The schoolyard swings are tangled in the wires The courthouse roof is split by winter hail You tied your red scarf round my shaking wrist And said, “Keep walking; we are not done yet” [Chorus] When the last wall falls, call my name I will answer through the ash and rain If the whole wide world is ending tonight Stay beside me till we lose the light [Outro] Stay beside me Stay beside me Till the morning has nowhere to rise
