the end of the world
lyrics by Penelope Houston/ music by P. Houston, G. Ingraham, D. O'Brien, J. Wilsey


When I wake up in the morning
from this dream I'm having
going to give everybody the warning
I can feel it, I can taste it
yeah, the end is near

I watch as cities will tumble
I smell your rivers burn
old men, kneeling and humble
nothing left for you to learn, to yearn
the end is here

And you all hold your breath
as you watch the last sun set
and your dreams will finally come
at the end of the world

look down, your shadow's on fire
this day will blot out your past
no man can hold himself higher
with bones of dust to dust
I can taste it, now, it's here

And you all hold your breath
as you watch the last sun set
and your dreams will finally come
at the end, the end of the world

And we all hold our breath
as we're standing at the edge
and our dreams will finally come
at the end, the end of the world
