the end of the world/thee michelle gun elephant


"I thought you were the one at fault, I thought you were cracked"
I'm muttered by you like that, however I act deaf with gazing absently

you begin to giggle by fits and starts and say that
the end of the world is waiting there
I'm heard that that is the end when the moon with reddish cast rises

it's gonna change gradually, softly and certainly
you already realized it was likely to collapse, didn't you
you thought something weird was going on, didn't you

you are waiting quietly with red tea in your hand and say that
the end of the world is watching from there
you're looking forward to it baking the bread
