Lyrics:
My feet are aching
And your back is pretty tired
And we've drunk a couple bottles, babe
And set our grief aside
The papers say it's doomsday
The button has been pressed
We're gonna nuke each other up boys
'Til old satan stands impressed

And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth runs to the ground

Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves in

You put your finest suit on
I paint my fingernails
Oh we're going out in style babe
And everything's on sale
We creep up on extinction
I pull your arms right in
I weep and say goodnight love
While my organs pack it in

And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth runs to the ground

Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves...

Oh it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Yes it's you I welcome death with
As the world, as the world caves in

As the world caves in

everybody gangsta til
"as the world caves in" starts to play

[sergiofranco]

"Love doesn't exist. There is no such thing as love. Therefore, there's no sorrow. That's what I thought"

[bananabread]

The contrast between "watching TV" and "welcoming death" is so sad to me. It's like before they didn't wanna believe it, but now they're finally accepting they're gonna die.

[Gameinger]

I found this version first, and I honestly think it's way better. So many chills.

[flmno]

This sounds like an unhappy ending of a film.

[spisbob]

I could see this as the ending song to an apocalyptic show, with the main character being happy with his friends and still mourning over the ones they’ve lost. They show a tribute to those who died in the show. They show the group walking forward, and the screen turns black, while the song keeps on playing.

[meg]

“To the boy who sought freedom... Goodbye.”

[riley]

*this song gives me a flashback to something that never happened*

[nattpearl]

i feel an emotion that doesn’t exist when i hear this song

[dreamland_]

The fact that Akira was in love with someone else the whole time just to have her die made me upset. But what made it worse is that ryo finally confessed his love for akira just for him to be dead at that very moment.

[RandomlyRandomThings]

Now while people discover this song from the girls version and the girls version has a talented voice, but this man has so much SOUL and passion it just makes this song so beautiful and is one of my favorite songs of all time. He is truly talented. 2:40-end truly show his passion.

[sophiewooloo]

there is something about "it's you i watch tv with" that makes me feel such inexplicable emotion. the idea of all these intense things happening in the chorus right before that, lying with your lover as the atom bomb locks in yadda yadda, thats to be expected. but the simplicity of "it's you i watch tv with", like the concept of the small things being most important as all this intense shit is going down.. ah im having so much trouble describing it. it just makes me feel so much

[pigeon]

y'all rly making me wanna watch devilman crybaby out here
(edit: i binged it and now i'm crying thanks)

[Prettyinpink]

"Love doesn't exist, There is no such thing as love. Therefore, there's no sorrow.That's what I thought -ryo

[kaithegayguy]

Scary listening to this now knowing this may come soon

[sweetangellie]

Some people say Ryo is still wondering why he is the only one speaking.

[emmalee]

listening to this after just finishing devilman: crybaby really makes the tears flow

[flynnhusband]

devilman crybaby is one of the most artistic, creative animes ive ever watched. it made me feel so many things at once. if you havent watched it, watch it.

[slendermanderritter]

“Akira, tell me, what is this feeling?”

[hannah-kicu]

“Akira, why am I the only one talking?”
