It started with a whisper, now it's all we hear
Echoes of our follies, ringing loud and clear
We built our towers high, but couldn't see the ground
Lost in our ambition, where no truth was found
And the skies, they darken with our dreams
Silent warnings that no one heeds
Oh, the world stops spinning on its own
All because we played with matches that we had thrown
Fires we started just to feel the power
Look at us now, in our final hour
Plastic seas and choking trees, did we think this through
Every step in arrogance, ignoring what we knew
From the depth of oceans to the outer space
We claimed it all, left no trace
And the earth, it trembles 'neath our feet
A planet's heart too tired to beat
Oh, the world stops spinning on its own
All because we played with matches that we had thrown
Fires we started just to feel the power
Look at us now, in our final hour
Could we rewrite the ending, if we start today
Turn back the clock and find another way
But it's a fantasy, as time slips away
In whispers of what if and if only we may
Oh, the world stops spinning on its own
All because we played with matches that we had thrown
Fires we started just to feel the power
Look at us now, in our final hour
Oh, the world stops spinning on its own
All because we played with matches that we had thrown
Fires we started just to feel the power
Look at us now, in our final hour
So here we stand, at the edge of time
A requiem for our crimes
Fading out, no more songs to play
When the world stops, on out final day
