As The World Caves In Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
My feet are aching
And your back is pretty tired
And we've drunk a couple bottles, babe
And set our grief aside
The papers say it's doomsday
The button has been pressed
We're gonna nuke each other up boys
'Til old Satan stands impressed

[Pre-Chorus]
And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth burns to the ground

[Chorus]
Oh girl it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh, it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves in

[Verse 2]
You put your finest suit on
I paint my fingernails
Oh we're going out in style babe
And everything's on sale
We creep up on extinction
I pull your arms right in
I weep and say goodnight love
While my organs pack it in

[Pre-Chorus]
And here it is, our final night alive
And as the earth burns to the ground

[Chorus]
Oh girl it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Oh, it's you I watch TV with
As the world, as the world caves—
Oh, it's you that I lie with
As the atom bomb locks in
Yes, it's you I welcome death with
As the world, as the world caves in

[Outro]
As the world caves in

This might be one of the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've ever heard.

[tuesday]

This song is one of those things that makes you think of your own mortality. Knowing your end is coming, and not being able to do anything but accept what’s about to end you. Tragic and terrifying, but peaceful and beautiful in the same way

[huutao]

The fact that Matt made this song for his cat makes the song even better

[mohamed.aziz.]

This song makes me feel feelings i've never experienced !

[kazz_crystal]

The only problem I have with this song is that it ends too soon

[Zhi.Zhi.]

did someone try singing this as well and the voice just went 📈📉📈📉📈📉📈📉

[evacurran]

This song makes you realize that, in the end, material things don’t matter… it’s the people you make memories with that you want to spend your last moments with.

[calixo]

*if this isn't played at my funeral, I'm not dying.*

[kayla-okcs]

This hits different when you’re lonely

[vanillagore]

A song to play if the world is ending

[Cloudyy_an]

0:51 the most iconic part, and personally my favorite! this is very chilling and a song that brings up ominous feelings- feelings of melancholy and i love it<3 i love this cover

[livwithpeacee]

My cat just laid on my lap as the “you” started I think it’s destiny 😭😩

[sharvareegupte]

The wailing sirens were no match for their love. Everyone was running, trying to save their lives, they were taking their time. They lay down on a blanket, dressed in their best attire, accepting their fate as the atom bomb becomes visible in the sky. They look into each other’s eyes saying their last goodbyes promising to find each other in their next lives…

[ELIJAH-rohs]

THIS FUCKING MADE ME CRY, I WILL SPEND EVERYDAY OF MY LIFE LIKE IT'S THE LAST.

[ertanfranzl]

This song just lets you help cry everything out. No matter if male or female, Crying shows that you are still a strong human who has emotions

[ludensvlog]

I found this beautiful piece at 3in the morning. Ugh, there's a lot of peace.

[adorkari]

"And, here it is, our final night alive" I get chills every time at that part

[JaywhypeesthToe]

When I first heard this I only heard the chorus and was like “this is a really cute song” then I listened to the full song and legit said “oh my god this is actually really depressing”

[fishy]

The versions aren't exactly in sync with each other, but if you line up this version, with Matt Maltese's version during the "As the world, As the world caves in" part, it's truly something else. Absolutely feel it in the soul.

[Mcbruuh]

This song is a definition of "Hey I'm gonna make you feel like a cool villain whether you like it or not."
