    Ahh-ay

    We knew no bounds
    Fell at the speed of sound
    Ridin' against all odds, but soon against ourselves
    You haunted every memory
    With no goodbyes, all bad for me
    Your pride put out the fire in our flames

    Then just one look is all it takes
    I feel your eyes, they're locked on every part of me
    And then my dumb heart says

    Just look up
    There is no place to hide
    True love doesn't die
    It holds on tight and never lets you go
    Just look up
    You cannot deny the signs
    What you've waited for
    Don't wait no more
    It's right up above you
    Just look up

    (Baby)
    Know I let you down, a nigga can't deny it (uh-huh)
    And there's so much I could lose it and, yes, that matters (yeah)
    I've been dealin' with madness (yo)
    Wasn't the man you needed (hmm)
    You dealin' with sadness, truthfully, it's all on me (hmm)
    And I'm sorry, my love (uh, uh)
    I'ma heal your heart, I'll hold it in my hand (ooh, yeah)
    Time is oh so precious, we don't really have much left now (ooh)
    Take my hand, baby (yeah), never leave you, Riley

    Look up, what he's really trying to say
    Is get your head out of your ass
    Listen to the goddamn qualified scientists
    We really fucked it up, fucked it up this time
    It's so close, I can feel the heat big time
    And you can act like everything is alright
    But this is probably happening in real time
    Celebrate or cry or pray, whatever it takes
    To get you through the mess we made
    'Cause tomorrow may never come

    Just look up
    Turn off that shit-box News
    'Cause you're about to die soon everybody
    Ooh, I, oh, I
    Look up
    Here it comes
    I'm so glad I'm here with you forever
