A newer song about, what do you know, when the world ends. Basically saying, how we don't really think about what we are doing. Or maybe we think about it, but we don't DO anything about it. The line describing this from the chorus: "When the world ends will we even care, when the world ends will we notice its not there?" |
Story Behind the Song
Another one done on my computer, someday I WILL get into the studio.....
Lyrics
WHEN THE WORLD ENDS by Philip Gregory
(verse 1)
People talk to me like they know what the hell they are saying.
Most of mankind is lost in their own stupidity.
If they could only see how childish they really are.
Then maybe I could find some sympathy for them.
(bridge1)
Can I be the only one who sees how vain we are?
I know it sounds depressing, but we have gone to far.
(chorus)
When the world ends, will we even care?
When the world ends, will we even notice its not there?
When the world ends, can we finally apologize,
for all the damage we've done?
(verse 2)
So maybe there's hope, maybe I am just in a bad mood,
How can I be certain when I am fed all the wrong food?
There is no rhyme, there is no reason, for everything I see,
My only hope is someday we'll be acquitted for bringing forth a sea...
of blood.
(bridge2)
A stare, an open mouth, that’s all that time will permit.
Before the cataclysm.
(chorus)
When the world ends, will we even care?
When the world ends, will we notice its not there?
When the world ends, can we finally apologize,
for all the damage that’s been done?
(verse 3)
They need to open their minds, and maybe they could see,
that anything is possible, no more it’s too hard for me.
Yeah I’m lazy,and I'm such a wacked out freak.
But at least I drive my own car, down my personal sidestreet.
(bridge)
Can I be the only one who sees how vain we are?
I know it sounds depressing but we have gone too far.
