shy kids - i don't want the world to end. lyrics

[verse 1]
a man’s been cruel a kid’s been shot
so the public’s tried and hung the lot
the newspapers at my parents house are packed half as thick and twice as loud
what do i do if my meat’s too red
or i can’t remember what some headline said
should i keep tabs on the rising surf
the pooling sweat of a burning earth

[chorus]
so while all the world tries to decide what size to build the ship
i’ll beat the flood, just kiss the ones i love and drown in it

[verse 2]
no trust in the law but i must be protected
no love for discussion on a comment page
no faith in the science til they get infected
who are they to tell you that we can’t be saved
we’re jamming shoulder to shoulder now
overcooked donuts with no way out
vanilla melt with a caramel core
in a broken freezer at a general store

[chorus]
and while all the world tries to decide what size to build the ship
i’ll watch the coverage and criticize the craftsmanship
now i don’t want the world to end
but it’s happening and they believe that we can’t do a thing about it
so while all the world tries to decide what size to build the ship
i’ll make a drink
i’ll play some rocket league then go to bed
[verse 3: malory]
i’ve been awake for too long
blow out the candles
we’re done
don’t despair
you’re scared because you care
take the weight of the world off your shoulders

[chorus]
i don’t want the world to end
but it’s happening and they believe that we can’t do a thing about it
if you don’t want the world to end
then tune them out because they can’t tell you to give it up or that you can’t help it
so while all the world tries to decide what size to build the ship
i promise you
i’ll grab my tools and i will help with it
