The end of time, you said forever but I guess you lied
Next time you keep your promise, you say forever it's till the day you die
My river flows into an ocean, not even gravity can stop this motion
Trust me you can't drink from my cup, we're too heavy, we can't hold each other up
I wait for you, the wait of the world, the weight of the world
You are to me what H is 2 O (oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
I'm rusty from all this lust running through me
I guess have to go, if you can't trust me
I gotta let it flow before it gets disgusting trust me
I can't ask for that no more, must be, must be
The end of the world
Now and then I go over the deep end
And from a distance it seems like I'm swimming
Low and behold, I'm truly struggling
If I let you get close you'd see I'm drownin in you
I was baptized in a motel pool, you were just above the surface
But I couldn't reach you
Gotta ask God if it was meant to be
Cause this pain I feel is close to divinity
I wait for you, the wait of the world, the weight of the world
You are to me what H is 2 O (oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
I'm rusty from all this lust running through me
I guess have to go, if you can't trust me
I gotta let it flow before it gets disgusting trust me
I can't ask for that no more, must be, must be
The end of the world.

Fricken awesome from start to finish. Played two of the songs on my Mixcloud show but could have played them all. One of the best lyricists there is - topical, cultural, thought-provoking and, at times, just damn-right funny.
