It's a slippery slope Dealing with these inner doubts On your way trying to cope I mean, is this even really something I can call my own? Or just a comfort blanket that I use 'Cause I'm far from home? I been the distance Done my duties Still feel like a misfit I hate the smugness of the church But when I leave, I miss it And if there's doubt in what I mean Well let me get explicit Feel like I'm caught up in a lie And your God's complicit! I'm done with this! Enough of living to your standards Just a bunch of hypocrites cherrypicking The commandments And even worse is how you're living for the cameras Stealing from the poor And making off like some bandits I'm done with this Enough of man-made religion Don't need another man to scrutinise how I'm living I got my God, I got my life You tell me what I need Only God can judge me Yeah, I'm finally free This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang, but a whimper This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang, but a whimper It's been a long time coming And you've probably seen it But then again kept it hidden So you wouldn't deem it Less than adequate And point the finger at the heathen Yeah, that's me But you'll forgive me second guessing what I can't see But told by faith the believe If it don't match my head and my heart Why should I believe? Can you tell me the origins? Or is it just falling into line With what you say because you're dominant? The arrogance is obvious Sugarcoat your God 'cause his real face is ominious The point us to the Son 'cause the Father is harming us Murder, genocide But you're telling me he's marvellous? I'll use my brain thank you very much You're skipping over logic Like cerebral Double Dutch I see it very clear, don't you? Just because two billion believe it Don't make a lie true This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang, but a whimper This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang, but a whimper World! Can you hear me when I'm calling? Feels like the sky is falling And while we at it Got a bone to pick I've got a story Better listen while I'm telling it Why did we leave the Garden? Did you know the whole time that we'd sin regardless? I'll have to beg your pardon It's more than kind of cruel I would call it heartless Where you come off Creating a world that's so sawed off Blowing holes in our hearts? It's all part of Your divine plan? Let me see if I understand You're happy to be the man Receive our worship and demand our loyalty? But when it hits the fan You blame us and bury your head in the sand Now it's you on the stand! Mankind's the jury Hereby sentences to death You will suffer our fury This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang, but a whimper This is how the world ends This is how the world ends This is how the world ends Not with a bang, but a whimper
