So my love, Catherina and me, 
  B 
decide to take our last walk through the noise to the sea

Oh say, can you see it's really such a mess  
   Db        
  Every inch of Earth is a fighting nest 
       C 
Giant pencil and lipstick tube shaped things, 
   B 
Continue to rain and cause screaming pain 
           Bb 
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red as our

feet find the sand,  and the sea is straight ahead, straight up ahead 
      Dm                      Am           C

The machine, that we built,

would never save us', that's what they say 

That's why they ain't coming with us today 
                          Dm                     Am 
And they also said it's impossible for a man to live and breathe under 
               C 
water,      forever, was their main complaint 
 Gm 
And they also threw this in my face, they said: 
  Dm                             Am 
Anyway, you know good and well it would be beyond the will of God,

Our machine, it has done its work, played its part well 
           B 
Without a scratch on our bodies and we bid it farewell 
   Bb 
Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile 
    A 
Before our heads go under we take a last look at the killing noise
