[Verse] As the tide recedes The moon begins to weep I come to life in the evening In the evening In the evening Crawling out of my grave So I can join the parade I hear the church bells ringing Church bells ringing [Prechorus] And all the townsfolk gather around The black sky turning upside down This world was born to drown Oh We were born to drown [Chorus] I've been waiting for a long Long time Waiting for the moon to die Holding on for dear life 'Til the end of the world And I've been waiting for the world to end 'Til we meet again Holding on for dear life 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world [Post-Chorus] (And) I've been waiting for the end of the world Waiting for the end of the world I've been waiting for the end of the world Waiting for the end of the world I've been waiting for the end of the world Waiting for the end of the world I've been waiting for the end of the world Waiting for the end of the world [Bridge] 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world 'Til the end of the world [Verse 2] Now as I lay to rest I will do my best To come to life in the evening In the evening In the evening So you can join the parade I promise I'll wait 'Til the church bells are ringing The church bells ringin
