The Elms

The Elms - This Is How The World Will End lyrics

Your rating:

VERSE 1.

When the dollar made with blood is spent,

When an enemy can't become a friend.

When the better man won't lend a hand,

Baby, this is how the world will end.



When a day of hope is a rarity,

Or a diplomat hasn't time to see

That a child lost is a true offense,

Baby, this is how the world will end.



CHORUS:

Bring a chair up to the table.

Bring a message to the crowd.

Where's a common trust to deliver us from the wretched 

and the proud?

Sing a tune about the promise.

Speak on that which we depend.

And if a certain light don't shine again,

Baby, this is how the world will end.



VERSE 2.

When the poorest kid is fending for himself,

Or the widow cries, but she gets no help.

When we know what's true, but we still pretend,

Baby, this is how the world will end.



CHORUS.



SOLO.



CHORUS:

Bring a chair up to the table.

Bring a message to the crowd.

Where's a common trust to deliver us from the wretched 

and the proud?

Sing a tune about the promise.

Speak on that which we depend.

Now let that certain light come shinin' then,

Baby, we could change the world again.



But if that certain light don't shine again,

Baby, this is how the world will end.
