Is this the finger, or just another fist?
Is this the kingdom, or just a hit-and-miss?
A misdirection, most of all this desperation.
Is this what they call freedom?
Is this what you call pain?
Is this what they call discontented fame?
It'll be a day like this one,
When the world caves in, when the world caves in,
when the world caves in
I'm singing this one like a broken piece of glass
For broken arms and broken noses in the back
Is this the New Year, or just another desperation?
You push until you're shoving
You bend until you break,
Do you stand on the broken field where your fathers lay?
It'll be a day like this one,
When the world caves in, when the world caves in,
when the world caves in
When the world caves in,
when the world caves in,
when the world caves in
There's nothing here worth saving,
There's no one here at all
Is there any net left that could break our fall?
It'll be a day like this one
When the sky falls down,
when the hungry and poor and deserted are found.
Are you discontented?
Have you been pushing hard?
Have you been throwing down this broken house of cards?
It'll be a day like this one,
When the world caves in, when the world caves in,
when the world caves in
Is there nothing left now? Nothing left to sing?
Are there any left who haven't kissed the enemy?
Is this the New Year, or just another desperation? Yeah, yeah
Does justice ever find you?
Do the wicked never lose?
Is there any other song to sing besides these blues?
And nothing is OK,
Till the world caves in, till the world caves in,
till the world caves in, till the world caves in.
Till the world caves in, till the world caves in,
till the world caves in, till the world caves in.
Till the world caves in, till the world caves in,
till the world caves in,
