The End of History - Momus

Headlights cross my bedroom wall

I don’t want to sleep

Restlessness and nervousness

Are my constant friends

I stayed in hoping you would call

Every night last week

Watching films on video

Time and time again

Something strange is happening

I believe the world

Is a book for which

A happy ending has been found

I dreamed I saw a city full

Of monstrous little girls

Fifty metres tall they

Crushed the buildings to the ground

I heard they put a telescope

In orbit round the earth

And with it saw an asteroid

Rushing towards us

But I’m not scared, I live in hope

For better or for worse

There must be light beyond the void

Yes, I know there must

Headlights cross my bedroom wall

But I don’t want to sleep

Ever since you called I’ve been

So happy I could weep

The sky tonight is full of stars

Searchlights and balloons

The world is ending, here we are

Together in my room

I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine

At the end of history

Through the darkness we will shine

Never lose your love for me
