Ever Since The World Ended
Ever since the world ended,I don't go out as much.People that I once befriendedJust don't bother to stay in touch.Things that used to seem so splendidDon't really matter today.It's just as well the world ended--It wasn't working anyway.Every since the world ended,There's no more bible belt.Remember how we all pretended?Going 'round, lying 'bout the way we felt.Every rule has been amended,There's no one keeping score.It's just as well the world endedWe couldn't have taken much more.Ever since the world ended,There's no more black or white.Ever since we all got blended,there's no more reason to fuss and fight.Dogmas that we once defendedno longer seem worthwhile.Ever since the world ended,I face the future--With a smile.
