Lyrics:<br /><br />The World’s Through<br /><br />He scrolls a calendar and flips a coin<br />He recruits her in his group to join<br />Because he tells her the world’s falling apart<br />And he knows each and every clue<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />He builds a shelter away from the sun<br />She’s locked up in there like a nun<br />Because the sky’s exposing itself to those below<br />Fire and brimstone are finding themselves rather due<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />He reads from a book he keeps locked away<br />He believes it correctly predicts when it’s doomsday<br />She tries to look at it over his shoulder<br />And sees the pen marks and highlights running askew<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />He tells her he’s seeing things in his sleep<br />Day by day the signs are starting to creep<br />Every morning he provides her with a new drawing<br />With each brushstroke his paranoia grew<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />She’s sold her house and gave away her car<br />As well as her speakers and her husband’s cigar<br />That he planned to smoke when this was all over<br />But for now he’d have to sit and stew<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />To survive he’d collected quite a stockpile<br />What else can happen in self-imposed exile<br />He told her it was all necessary since the military<br />Would be coming to try to put them under their shoe<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />He’s looking at the planets through his scope<br />There’s a fire up there with which no one can cope<br />She looks through the hole and sees nothing<br />And interprets this as what it’s all come to<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br /><br />They counted down the seconds to midnight<br />She noticed all his knuckles were white<br />As she gripped on to his hand<br />And the world laughed at the view<br />This is what happens when you think the world’s through<br />
