the sun is setting now
as we listen to the sound
of the dying radio

tonight i made a wish
destroy me with a kiss
apocalypse in stereo

summer's almost over,
we'll be going back to school
don't leave me on my own
summer's never been so cold

so, i'm yours for the night
flying high above the lights
just sit back, relax
and we'll watch the stars explode

it's hard to stay awake,
if you're asleep, i know i'll be gone
'cos this is not a love song
(don't you know)

tonight the sky it burns away,
ill wait my turn to say i'll miss you, i'll miss you
i'll miss you

ancient antenna
a static transmission
finds its way into the sky
at this frequency, you'll only be the end of me
sorry i'm too young to die

i could never make you happy,
though we both know that
i remember every word you were screaming at my back
you said, "throw away your songs, they're selfish & absurd"
well, they're lying in the trash
i still remember every word

it's hard to stay awake,
if you're asleep, i know i'll be gone
'cos this is not a love song

tonight the sky it burns away,
my turn to say i'll miss you, i'll miss you
i'll miss you

you're breaking up [2x]

you're breaking up again

burn a candle at both ends
fire burns twice as bright
half as long you'll have to live
sorry, but i'm too young to die

it's hard to stay awake,
if you're asleep, i know i'll be gone
'cos this is not a love song

tonight the sky it burns away
my turn to say i'll miss you, i'll miss you
