jukebox the ghost - how the world began lyrics

[verse 1]
it starts the same as any day
the highest all+time tidal wave
we’d seen it before, so we weren’t afraid
that’s how the world began
the sun so hot that the hills caught flame
man, you should’ve seen it when it hit la
it was sad, but it was funny, it’s hard to explain
that’s how the world began

[chorus]
and a brand+new moon was born from the deep
and the water sent waves evenly sp+ced
they made lines in the shore to indicate
when the holy days were coming
no more beasts or locusts or rising waters
third+world parents with first+world daughters
no need for money, for guns, for banks
that’s how the world, that’s how the world began
that’s how the world began
[verse 2]
strangers came on the very next day
as to the reason why, they didn’t say
they were banning cars on the interstate
that’s how the world began
everything came flooding back in a rush
your first real love, your high school crush
nothing else seemed to mean very much
that’s how the world began

[chorus]
and the brand+new moon that was born from the deep
hung out over so low i went out to see
people out on the streets, hands in the air
to carve their names in the surface
no more floods or plagues or pestilence
no more swords on loan from the government
there’s no need for guns, for money, for banks
that’s how the world, that’s how the world began
that’s how the world began

[bridge]
oh
isn’t it amazing?
the scenery never stops changing
oh
there’s a song between stations
it just takes a little patience
[outro]
and we took all our phones
and we made a great fire
and we shook off our bones
and we chanted around the pyre
and we danced ’til our feet couldn’t stand
and we swam ’til we couldn’t see land
drunk on a world i’ll never understand
but they say it’s for the good of man
let me end with the good news
nothing to win, nothing to lose
nowhere to be, nothing to do
that’s how the world, that’s how the world began
