There's a darkness
Waiting in the clouds
And a silent crowd forms now
There's a darkness
In the sky above
Seems it's waited long enough

Woah, I should've known,
I should've known by now
Woah, I should've known,
I should've known by now but I don't

As the darkness
Moves to the ground
I take my one last look around
Nobody ran, nobody screamed,
Nobody cried, nobody hid,
Or headed home to say goodbye
No way at all how they had said
What the end would be like

Woah, I should've known,
I should've known by now
Woah, I should've known,
I should've known by now but I don't

Fold and collapse and rebuild again
Fold and collapse and rebuild again
Before we collapse and rebuild again
Fold and collapse until the end

Will you sing the silence
Do you hear it ringing out
Will you search around the darkness
For a light that can't be found
You've built your bed of billboards
And you've blocked away the sun
To witness the world ending
At the tip of your tongue will you know

Woah, I should've known,
I should've known by now
Woah, I should've known,
I should've known by now

The time has come to pay the debt
With no money for the rent
And I don't care where we head
Or whether we melt or freeze to death
But I don't
But I don't
