recorded as "Teenage Alien Nation" on The Art of Losing
"Alright, we're gonna try a new song out on you, and it's called 'Waking Up To The End Of The World' and it's about breaking up. And it goes like this:"
I want it all
no matter what you thought you heard me say
no matter what you know it's only everything
gotta keep me on the line
and so what
if you don't like me I don't give a fuck
if you don't like me I could change my luck it seems
I'm getting rotten to the core
fading out tomorrow
you and me, we're going down in sorrow
calling all destroyers
get in line, it's coming up around us
waking up to the end of the world
it's all gone
last day of summer left me on my own
so sick and tired of waiting by the phone for you
you don't call me anyway
sometimes
you've gotta pick it up and roll the dice
no looking back, and man you don't think twice about
feeling lonely everyday
fading out tomorrow
you and me, we're going down in sorrow
calling all destroyers
get in line, it's coming up around us
waking up to the end of the world
waking up to the end of the world
fading out tomorrow
you and me, we're going down in sorrow
calling all destroyers
get in line, it's coming up around us
fading out tomorrow
you and me, we're going down in sorrow
calling all destroyers
get in line, it's coming up around us
fading out tomorrow
you and me, we're going down in sorrow
calling all destroyers
get in line, it's coming up around us
waking up to the end of the world
waking up to the end of the world
