APOCALYPSE NOW. SEE YOU LATER by Tom Jensen
I spent last night alone
Looking up at the stars
Given up on seeing the sun
Feeling sorry for myself,
Feeling sorry for what
I have and haven't done
I am back at square one
Stranded on this giant sphere
we all call the Earth
Still, I’m sitting here
standing guard over this
my little pile of dirt
I know it
sounds deranged
That the only time
I can get relief
Is when people
share my pain
And empathize
with my grief
Apocalypse now
apocalypse later
It sure seems we've
fallen out of favor
Some day our dreams,
soul and memories
Will be all well have
left to savor
Sitting here watching the sky
Wishing I was an astronaut
But unluckily for me I’m not
I’m just another guy who hurts
If these clouds don't pass by
Soon the flood'll come
turn everything to mud
Ruin my last clean shirt
Apocalypse now
apocalypse later
It sure seems we've
fallen out of favor
Yelling hip, hip, hooray
To others or myself
It’s probably not okay
to think or say
That hopefully well all
get washed away
When the end
of our days begins
today could be the day
It could happen right now
I wouldn't care
At least I chose
the right shirt to wear
Apocalypse now
apocalypse later
It sure seems we've
fallen out of favor
Some day our dreams,
soul and memories
Will be all well
have left to savor
Ill be here with my tears of joy
Sitting and watching
everything get destroyed
Amidst this
an ocean of sorrow
I won’t feel disgraced
I’ll be wearing a smile on my face
As everyone else runs away
Hey, I’ll be here all day
but I might not be tomorrow
