Sun is shining, birds are singing
In schoolyards bright flags unfurl
Things look so normal but looks are deceiving
Today is the end of the world
People are laughing, talking and laughing
While I am losing my girl
Why are they laughing they should be grieving
Today is the end of the world
The world ended when you walked through that door
Leaving me all alone
I learned something that I never knew before
Your heart can't die while you live on
Live on in darkness, live on in sorrow
While this old hurt takes a whirl
What good is living, my love is leaving
Today is the end of the world
