Here are the lyrics for “My Apocalypse Now” (written by Kaer Trouz)

You look like an angel in dark clouds

Your voice is shaky and muffled by this shroud

The shroud of lies we knit to stay so close

Hmmhmmmmmm

I am all you want and nothing more

I am falling and you’re like a ghost

I am laid up waiting on this floor

I’m so in love with you it’s tragic

You have the sweetest smell it’s magic

Here comes apocalypse now

Hmmhmmmmmm

I am all you want and nothing more

I want to feel you tearing down my door

Oh, I will pine for you, forever

You’re my golden sun

My treasure

Oh oh oh oh oh

I’m so in love with you it’s tragic

You have the sweetest smell it’s magic

Hmmhmmmmmm

I want to feel you tearing down my door

I am all you want and nothing more

Here comes apocalypse now

Here comes apocalypse now

Here comes apocalypse now
