Preaching The End Of The World
Embracing Connection in the Face of Apocalypse: A Song of Shared Solace
Lyrics
Hello, I know there's someone out there who can understand
Expresses a hope to connect with someone who can empathize and relate to the speaker's feelings.
And who's feeling the same way as me
Looking for someone who shares similar emotions or experiences.
I'm twenty-four and I've got everything to live for
The speaker is young and has many reasons to live.
But I know now that it wasn't meant to be
Realizes that despite having reasons to live, the situation or circumstances indicate otherwise.
'Cause all has been lost and all has been won
Highlights the idea of loss and victory, suggesting a sense of futility in the face of events.
And there's nothing left for us to save
Implies a sense of hopelessness or inevitability in trying to salvage anything.
But now I know that I don't want to be alone today
Desires companionship or someone to be with today.
So if you find that you've been feeling just the same
Invites others who feel similarly to reach out.
Call me now it's alright
Encourages immediate contact, reassuring that it's okay.
It's just the end of the world
Suggests a catastrophic or drastic situation, but the speaker sees it as an opportunity to connect.
You need a friend in the world
Stating the need for a friend in this challenging time.
'Cause you can't hide
Emphasizes the inability to conceal emotions or reality.
So call and I'll get right back
Promises a prompt response to a genuine call for help or connection.
If your intentions are pure
Wants assurance of the sincerity of the caller's intentions.
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
Expresses the speaker's search for a companion in facing the end of the world.
I've got a photograph I'll send it off today
Reiteration of the need for companionship during this catastrophic event.
And you will see that I am perfectly sane
-Not for a lifetime or forever and a day
-'Cause we know now that just won't be the case
-Call me now it's alright
-It's just the end of the world
-You need a friend in the world
-'Cause you can't hide
-So call and I'll get right back
-If your intentions are pure
-I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
-There will be no commitment and no confessions
Rejects commitment or keeping secrets, emphasizing the fleeting nature of the situation.
And no little secrets to keep
-No little children or houses with roses
-Just the End of the world and me
-'Cause all has been gone and all has been done
-And there's nothing left for us to say
-But we could be together as they blow it all away
-And we can share in every moment as it breaks
-Call me now it's alright
Reaffirms the need for a genuine connection with someone.
It's just the end of the world
-You need a friend in the world
-'Cause you can't hide
-So call and I'll get right back
-If your intentions are pure
-I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
-Call me now it's alright
Reiterates the willingness to be a supportive friend during this crisis.
It's just the end of the world
-You need a friend in the world
-'Cause you can't hide
-So call and I'll get right back
-If your intentions are pure
-I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world
