Lyrics of '4 Chords Of The Apocalypse' by Julian Casablancas

I hear it in your silence, when you don't speak
What was funny then,isn't funny anymore
I can hear it in your voice, there's always a catch
We're going nowhere, and we're going there fast.

Anything to watch while we are waiting for this Apocalypse
What more is there to do?
It's nice to be important, but so close to being despised
It's more important to be nice, I guess than being wise
I'll take your shopping, I'll take you dancing too
I'll take you out, all the things you wanna do
And I'll give you diamonds, I'll give you space
So be with anyone you want, it's alright with me

Our time is over.
Don't you know that if a time-warp was open
I'd stay right in my place?
That war is over.

I hear it in your silence, when you don't speak
There is a quiet, crying rage burning inside you so deep
I'd give you anything, but I'd give you problems.
So be with anyone you want, it's all right with me.

I hear it in your voice, can see it in your lips
There's always a catch... I guess that's alright with me
No ones around, but the map says "you're here"
Now I can hear loneliness screaming in my ear.

Our time is over.
Don't you know that if a time-warp was open
I'd stay right in my place?
The war ain't over yet, no
This war ain't over yet...
Being nice is only hard when others aren't
Our time is over
