Acoustic version of an awesome song.
I used the following video as my reference

[Verse]
I dreamt about you the other night
We were there and people started to die
The seas rose to a terrible height
But we survived yes we survived (I don t know why)
[Verse]
We watched the grass pile up in the cracks
The birds return, the nights went black
Yeah we were lovers in the great collapse
The seasons came, the seasons passed
[Chorus]
So free what you love cause it s gonna die anyway
Those golden days will be fossilized and you ll scream
Oh back it up, back it up, but it s not the same
Though it s enough just to say I knew you well
(3x)
[Verse]
Now I can t sleep and I can t say no
Civilization ain t got no soul
The tick tock ticks out of control
I m on a roll, I m on a roll (he s lost control)
[Verse]
Though when my dream ends
It s true we re hardly friends
I can t forget those seasons
The world is one, the world is one
[Chorus]
So free what you love cause it s gonna die anyway
Those golden days will be fossilized and we ll scream
Oh back it up, back it up, but it s not the same
Though it s enough just to say I knew you well
[Alternate bridge to repeat chorus (as performed in video)]
