Текст пісні
This is the sound of unearthly silence
After a year of blood and violence
And these are the men who are grey with ash
Rolling their barrels of useless cash
The clocks have frozen on a night so cold
The sun has dropped, the joke's growing old
Wouldn't you know it, the joke's on us, my friend
The dam has burst, the bubble's popped
We dove head first, we belly flopped
Inhaling whatever providence sends
This is how it ends
This is how it ends
This is the smell of the summer rain
Beyond the fields of rotting grain
And this is the sting of the winter wind
When it's too late to stop and too late to begin
The clocks have frozen on a night so cold
The sun has dropped, the joke's growing old
Wouldn't you know it, the joke's on us, my friend
The dam has burst, the bubble's popped
We dove head first, we belly flopped
Inhaling whatever providence sends
This is how it ends
Oh, you thought there'd be something more
A great upheaval or a world war
Little did you know it'd be just a whisper
A song that you sang for your dying sister
This is the light from a dimming star
The one that finds you wherever you are
And these are the stones that pave the street
Where the chalk outlines and infinity meet
The clocks have frozen on a night so cold
The sun has dropped, the joke's growing old
Wouldn't you know it, the joke's on us, my friend
The dam has burst, the bubble's popped
We dove head first, we belly flopped
Inhaling whatever providence sends
This is how it ends
This is how it ends
