One Last Night

Watchful eyes upon a ticking clock
Pace around the room and I’ll check the lock
The wood groans, it won’t hold tight
“I don’t think we’ll last the night”

It’s coming for us, dead or alive
There’s no fighting, no way to survive
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
It’s coming for us, it's there outside

Candlelight twirls in your eyes
A somber dance, I recognize 
There’s no hope left to reprise
This morning was our last sunrise

So push aside regret and hold me
And kiss me timelessly
One final night of softness
Before we’re swallowed by darkness
