Lyrics
On the day the world came to an end,
Clueless and bored, we were bound for oblivion
We just stood by, scrolling up and down Instagram
Looking at selfies and pictures of sandwiches.
Hopped up on dopamine, woefully ignorant,
We missed all the signs because no one was listening.
And suddenly, it became time for a reckoning.
The day the world came to an end.
On the day the world came to an end,
We cast all our lots and elected a president,
Putting our faith in an imperfect government,
Dividing ourselves, Democrat and Republican.
Parties were pledging their godly allegiance,
But they were not even remotely like Jesus,
They were more like the god that they made in their image,
The day the world came to an end.
On the day the world came to an end,
The earth grew silent, and everything dark and dim
Our hope blew away like a leaf on a mighty wind
We should have known this would be an apocalypse…
But you made a garden with a tree in the center
And after three days, the sun started to rise again
We’re making our pilgrimage, returning to Eden
On The day the world came to an end.
On the day the world came to an end.
It’s time to start over again.
