Today I read about the end of the world
I read it in newsprint
Curled up in my bed
It came with a flash
It came in the middle of the night
Snuck in like a thief
And stole it all away
Today I read about the end of the world
It's scheduled to happen soon
They can't tell you the date quite yet
But they know it's coming soon
Tomorrow may never come
But I will never know
Yesterday may be the last time
The last time I see my sister
The last time I see the sunset
Tomorrow may never come
Because today may be all I have
Today I read about the end of the world
Now I wait and hold my breath
