Verse 1
It’s like the signs are the times
Of all our dreaded dreams
As if we knew what they could mean
We can’t run so we hide
Could this sequence coincide
With the changes taking place inside
Why can’t we make a change
Chorus
Destroy the hate, diffuse the lies
Shatter this shield of compromise
Like it’s the end of the world
Take up your arms to feed the hungry
Clothe the cold and love the lonely
Like it’s the end of the world
Verse 2
What is there to lose
To have a choice and never try
Is it blindness when we choose to close our eyes
When I have more than I could need
Do I give just to receive
Is my pursuit for the happiness of someone else
Can’t we see we’re all the same
Chorus
Destroy the hate, diffuse the lies
Shatter this shield of compromise
Like it’s the end of the world
Take up your arms to feed the hungry
Clothe the cold and love the lonely
Like it’s the end of the world
Bridge
And I know you’ll probably say
It’s okay
It’s not the end of the world
