Lyrics
Copyright 2015, Mendel Singer
If the World Would End Today
1. Hopeless, that's the way I feel when I awake and it only gets worse from there
Hopeless, on a good day I can work my way up to just despair
2. Failure, It's all I've ever been and all I'll ever be, that's what people see
Nobody seems to care, there's a person deep in here
And there's a really tall bridge just a couple miles away....
Chorus
If the world would end today, would I miss it much
I've been beaten not touched by people close to me
I just can't see another day, a better day
When I won't have to curse 'cause I woke up
And hope removes the pain
If the world would end today
If the world would end today
3. High hopes, my Momma always had big dreams for me, but I let her down
High hopes, truth is I failed myself more than anyone around
Mem'ries, they haunt me day and night, the sounds and the sight of when my soul was ripped to shreds
If I can't live with myself, I'll never love somebody else
And now that really tall bridge is just 1 mile away.....
Chorus
If the world would end today, would I miss it much
I've been beaten not touched by people close to me
I just can't see another day, a better day
When I won't have to curse 'cause I woke up
And hope removes the pain
If the world would end today
If the world would end today
If the world would end today
If the world would end
