paroles de chanson When the End of the World Came - The Jane Austen Argument

When the end of the world came
It passed like an awkward remark
No light for believers
No scientists left in the dark
No one proved right and no one was wrong
We weren't left alone and we didn't belong
When the end of the world came
It passed like an awkward remark

And when the end of the world came
We thought they were just crying wolf again
No time for forgiveness
No time for the meaningless blame again
And the sound, it was soft
And the weather was warm
The sky had forgotten to put up a storm
When the end of the world came
We thought they were just crying wolf again

And we knew we were the fortunate ones
We'd always been right and we known all along
But if there is a hell, it's a heavenly song
Sung by those we'd always labelled as wrong
When the end of the world came
And when the end of the world came
When the end of the world came
When the end of the world came

But when the end of the world came
Everyone swore they had seen it coming
No matter their creed or conviction
They swore they had seen it coming
Because they'd seen the pattern in scriptures or Saturn
In beakers or latin, Dan Brown's antimatter
The end of the world came
Everyone swore that they'd known

Oh, and when the end of the world came
We all just looked kinda relieved
And we looked at our pictures
And saw what we'd finally achieved
There was no need for regret, and forget all the need
All of our assets were frozen or freed
When the end of the world came
We all just looked kinda relieved

Because we knew, we knew we were the fortunate ones
If they had been right maybe we had been wrong
And if there is a hell, it's a heavenly song
Sung by those we'd always labelled as wrong
Oh, and when the end of the world came
And when the end of the world came
Oh, when the end of the world came
Oh, and when the end of the world came

When the end of the world came
I sat and I sipped my earl grey
No one was gendered or violent or straight or gay
There was no one afflicted by war or religion
We all turned to dust and the dust was beginning to bundle together
To start the whole story again
