Kris Kelly – Apocalyptic lyrics

His innocence fell with his clothes to the floor
In a pile of superhero pjs
The day the seed was first planted in him.
From that a noose grew around his throat.

He left him hanging from the family tree,
Dripping out white into the river down below,
Rapids of venom slowing eating him away,
Flowing like fire until he overflows.

And as the bullet enters in and out of him,
Is this part of His plan?
Can he heal the damage that shred right through his soul?
So apocalyptic.

And the light was within his reach
But the will moved through him like a slug.
Both of his hands were in fists, body frozen.
He is a boy who knows how it feels to break.

In a way he was yours and she was mine.
She would shrink me down until I imploded.
Still the child made a superhero out of her
Even with her nail marks along my throat.

My home was always on the edge of a steep cliff,
So it was the only place I knew to build our own.
Now we’ve both fallen down into the river below,
And for me to stay above I must hold you down.

We recreate the chaos,
It feels so safe inside the familiar pain.
But we are pedaling backward, cycling through our past,
So apocalyptic.

And the light is within our reach
But the will moves through us like a slug
Both of our hands are in fists, bodies frozen
We’re just two boys who know how it feels to
To break down, to break up, break in two.

Now he’s reaching out a hand,
Take his hand, set him free.
A kiss for that wounded child,
Kiss his cheek, set him free.

We are both strong enough to rescue them,
We are warriors of the light.
You’ve never been stronger than you are today,
Now let’s open up the sky.
Cause we are pure love
And it’s here and it’s free.

Come take my hand, my love
We are free, we are free...
