lyrics

As this world comes to an end

As this world comes to an end
and what we hold dear has gone
our planet's drained
leaving us here alone

And I fear
that we won’t get back
the world we had before

If we could see the wrong
in the wasteful way we live
then maybe minds would change
maybe we’d press on

If we could hear the cries
of the ground beneath our feet
then maybe minds would change
maybe we’d move on

We must take a step beyond
the path that we’ve worn out
this path we call our home
this Earth we call our own

We’ll take a step beyond into the void of the unknown
we’ll link with Earth itself and the lands that we all roam

Work as one
and we will see
together we can find
the path we’re meant to lead

We only have once chance to live
we must thrive
we only have this life to give
so give what you’ve got

We were never designed to live this way
trapped in an endless cycle of decay
the things we’ve done, the things we say
adapt and we can live another day

I can hear it call my name
a yearning for change
but as we’re led astray
that voice begins to fad

We must take a step beyond
the path that we’ve worn out
this path we call our home
this Earth we call our own

We’ll take a step beyond
into the void of the unknown
we’ll link with Earth itself
and these lands that we all roam

We are the new age
we’ll make the change
and bring reform

The competition, a consuming system
machine creations that won’t ever glisten
poisoning this Earth, expanding their turf
until we’ll have nothing left

We’re running out of time, we’re out of line
we’ve seen the signs, escape the grind
use our minds to be more kind
and then we’ll find a bind between us all

Work as one
and we will see
together we can find
who we're meant to be
take my hand
and come with me
and we can find our own destiny

As this world comes to an end

After listening to this song from beginning to end with his eyes closed, my son (6yo) said... first I was flying in outer space in a monster truck blasting out fire. then i was floating in space with a cat and we were both in space suits. and then i was fighting a giant robot and it turned into 80 more giant robots. but then my fist grew super big and i punched the giant one in the face and it died. music of exceptional creativity, color and virtuosity. :-) ache-horn
