Lyrics

(This Is) The Way the World Ends
(Bolter/Bell/Matteson/McMillan)

It’s been a good long ride
But it’s coming to an end
All the population turning over
There’s just no way to win

I feel so empty handed
But no one is to blame
That’s the way the world ends baby
With a whimper not a bang (just floats away)

Look at all these lakes and rivers
And trees fall without a sound
Try to hold that water in your pocket
But it keeps on running out

I feel so empty handed
But no one is to blame
That’s the way the world ends baby
With a whimper not a bang (just floats away)

Can’t see all the charts and numbers
Cause no one’s reading the books
Spend your precious time while you got it
Cause we’re all just walking the hook

It was so good when it started
And you know it’s such a shame
That’s the way the world ends baby
With a whimper not a bang (just floats away)
