talis kimberley - world's end lyrics
i bought my little cottage just a year before the crash
ownership means less now than it did
just a couple dozen houses round a tiny village green
and the hills do what they can to keep us hid
seemed like the perfect place to run to
back when i was just identifying trends
i’ve got a little land, good neighbours and a shotgun
here at world’s end
i don’t think we’ll starve but everybody’s hungry
i don’t think i’ll see my family again
my sister’s kids were living in north london
i don’t think of them too often, it’s not a good way to stay sane
well, there used to be some radio from swindon
(bread rise, b+tter come)
till eight months ago the signal failed to send
(stone grind, river run)
i’d like to think that there are other places
(barley brew and oats to spare)
like world’s end
[spoken interlude:]
the radio’s been silent this past year. we’re not expecting to hear anything now
i’m trying to notice what’s really changed. inside us, i mean. besides all the obvious things
i’ve realized n0body talks as much as they used to. and i’ve been forgetting things. stuff i used to know. names of people who didn’t make it, songs i used to sing, all that. we don’t sing much, these days
that’s why i’m writing this down. so that i remember
just a village in the heart of good old england
(bread rise, b+tter come)
with a saxon church and a pub they couldn’t close
(stone grind, river run)
far enough, i think, from what used to be cities
(barley brew and oats to spare)
oh, and what it’s like there now god only knows
(keep us fed when the cupboard’s bare)
well we take our turns to watch the road. we’re ready
(bread rise, b+tter come)
we’ve got traps set up where the lane begins to bend
(stone grind, river run)
i’ve never k!lled a man but i’d do it in a heartbeat
here at world’s end
world’s end
[spoken]
that’s why i’m writing this down. so that i remember
