We flew too close to the Sun
 
 'Cause we never thought that we could burn
 
 Yeah we knew all along
 
 But playing ignorant can't be unlearned
 
  
  So listen this one goes out to the ones that we crushed
 
 If you can still hear us, please forgive us
 
 It's our turn to get what we deserve
 
 This is an anthem for the end of the world
  
 
 We follow on and on
 
 Until we're dead and gone
  
 
 And if the sky came down tonight
 
 Where would you be
 
 If the sky came down tonight
 
 Tell me what you would see
 
 Nowhere to run 'cause we'll be numb
 
 When we look at what we've become
 
 If the sky came down tonight
 
 We'd be better off dead than alive
  
 
 There's a price on our heads
 
 And the hangman has come for us
 
 Tell me are you prepared
 
 As you turn to dust
  
 
 We stripped mother earth and we sold her for parts
 
 Ladies and gentlemen, we killed our gods
 
 It's our turn to get what we deserve
 
 This is an anthem for the end of the world
  
 
 And if the sky came down tonight
 
 Where would you be
 
 If the sky came down tonight
 
 Tell me what you would see
 
 Nowhere to run 'cause we'll be numb
 
 When we look at what we've become
 
 If the sky came down tonight
 
 We'd be better off dead than alive
  
 
 And if the sky came down tonight
 
 Where would you be
 
 If the sky came down tonight
 
 Tell me what you would see
 
 Nowhere to run 'cause we'll be numb
 
 When we look at what we've become
 
 If the sky came down tonight
 
 We'd be better off dead than alive
