Name: When This World Comes to an End
Duration: P00H04M30S
Description: The first version we heard of this song was by Tim O’Brien. Most of us, having never heard him before, instantly fell in love with him and this great track. We didn’t know how we could make it any better but considering the subject matter, we decided to rub a good bit of filth and grime on it.

lyrics

I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
When this world comes to an end.

Woah, there'll be signs and wonders.
Woah, there'll be signs and wonders.
Woah, there'll be signs and wonders.
When this world comes to an end.

I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
When this world comes to an end.

Woah, the moon she will be bleeding.
Woah, the moon she will be bleeding.
Woah, the moon she will be bleeding.
When this world comes to an end.

Woah, the sun he will be darkened.
Woah, the sun he will be darkened.
Woah, the sun he will be darkened.
When this world comes to an end.

I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
When this world comes to an end.

Brothers, sisters, please get ready.
Brothers, sisters, please get ready.
Brothers, sisters, please get ready.
For the time is drawing near.

Woah, the starts they will be falling.
Woah, the starts they will be falling.
Woah, the starts they will be falling.
When this world comes to an end.

I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
When this world comes to an end.

I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
I believe in being ready.
When this world comes to an end.
