Oh, you know when the world ends
I'm going to take you aside and say
Let's watch it fade away, fade away
And the world's done
Ours just begun
It's done
Ours just begun…
I'm going to love you
I'm going to love you
When the world ends
I'm going to hold you
When the world is over
We'll just be beginning...
- Excerpts from "When the World Ends" by Dave Matthews, Glen Ballard

"Peter!"
"Olivia… you're alive!"
ooooo
