Actor Director - The Last Take Lyrics

My whole life I wished for good weather
But there's a place in the sky that keeps opening
A black void, a ripped sleeve, a tear where the seams are splitting
A small stain, a loose wheel, a fear of the eye of the storm slowly growing
I'll be waiting for you there
It felt close to home
When you said, "Let's watch it burn"
With the world spinning all around
A concrete patch in a little town
You said, "Let's leave it all"
I said, "Just say the word"
I'll hold your hand when you're spinning out
Rush hour in a ghost town
I'll be waiting for you there
A lost note, a found coin, a cold wind, a black void
A long drag, a loud bang, the sound of the rain on the windshield
A long day, a close scrape, The Last Take
The paint on the side of a building that's fading
The jaws of the beast slowly closing
It felt close to home
When you said, "Let's watch it burn"
With the world spinning all around
A concrete patch in a little town
You said, "Let's leave it all"
I said, "Just say the word"
I'll hold your hand while you're spinning out
Rush hour in a ghost town
It felt close to home
When you said, "Let's watch it burn"
With the world spinning all around
A concrete patch in a little town
You said, "Let's leave it all"
I said, "Just say the word"
I'll hold your hand while you're spinning out
Rush hour in a ghost town
It felt close to home
When you said, "Let's watch it burn"
With the world spinning all around
A concrete patch in a little town
You said, "Let's leave it all"
I said, "Just say the word"
I'll hold your hand while you're spinning out
Rush hour in a ghost town
The wrong name, a bad game, a missed face, a new place
When strings break, red wine stains, the speed you rewind tapes
Abstract shapes, a full plate, mailed past date, ticks too late
The show ends, last month's rent, a thick skull with no helmet
A knife's edge, a blank cheque, a tide's change, no defense
The very last moment before the song ends
