I've been considering oblivion tonight
I'll squeeze the last few drops of the bruised, dark fruit
And pretend that I just might
Might get the Viking funeral, might OD on the lawn
Might end up immortal like an old soul song
You know it's bearing down, it's bearing down
Hunter Thompson was right, it's bearing down
Bearing down, it's bearing down
Robin Williams was right, it's bearing down
It always seemed kinda comical just to go
When the crumbs of youthful pleasures go stale
And give way to the undertow
Thought the Golden Gate would be beautiful
Hate the height, but it’s a hell of a view
Swan dive, leave it all behind, but now there's you
And it's bearing down, it's bearing down
I can't leave you here alone, it's bearing down
It's bearing down, it's bearing down
I can't leave you here alone with it bearing down
I see you shining in the Sun again and I know
For the first time in forever, I'm certain that I can't go
You're the one I want to wither with
I want to see you when you're old
And be the one to keep you warm
When the world turns cold
It's bearing down, it's bearing down
Hallelujah, we're alive, it's bearing down
I know it's bearing down, it's bearing down
Hallelujah, we're alive, it's bearing down
