Until The Earth Would Open - Maxïmo Park

I won’t survive,

but I intend to have a good time

I will proceed,

but I won’t fulfill my every need

I won’t survive,

but whoever does?

We could drive until the earth would open

Take me to the verge of England’s ocean

Tonight suggests so much

I won’t survive

and I’ll give redemption a miss

I will proceed

and I will ration the risk

I won’t survive.

Nobody does.

We could drive until the earth would open

Take me to the verge of England’s ocean

Tonight suggest so much

Hold tight for one last push

I’ve been saving myself for you

'Cause there’s nothing else I can do

I’ve been saving myself up for you

'Cause there’s nothing else I can do Save all your dignity for me Or just ignore my selfish plea

I won’t survive,

but I intend to have a good time

I will proceed,

but I won’t fulfill my every need

Fulfill my needs!

We could drive until the earth would open

Please take me to the verge of England’s ocean

Tonight suggest so much

Hold tight for one last push

I’ve been saving myself for you

'Cause there’s nothing else I can do

I’ve been saving myself up for you

'Cause there’s nothing else I can do Don’t punish me For who I can’t be
