[Verse 1]

Little kid

Sunny outside

Playing Nintendo

Singing on drives

Just smiles, happy, not sad

Swallowing feelings when they get bad

So big that he can’t digest

All coming up when you least expect it

But he doesn’t know that yet

Favorite song on the car cassette

[Pre-Chorus]

You’ll learn the hard way

[Chorus]

The apocalypse is trying to survive

But I got everything to keep me alive

When the ground begins to shake

And the dead rise from the grave

I hope I’ll be okay

When my life’s coming up doomsday

When my life’s coming up doomsday

[Verse 2]

Got big, bigger mistakes

Little earthquake every heart that aches

Sitting in the driver's seat

With somebody, too scared to speak

So intense it’ll never last

When it goes down, it’ll fall real fast

Gonna have to wait and see

Favourite song on a burnt CD

[Pre-Chorus]

You’ll learn the hard way

[Chorus]

The apocalypse is trying to survive

But I got everything to keep me alive

When the ground begins to shake

And the dead rise from the grave

I hope I’ll be okay

When my life’s coming up doomsday

When my life’s coming up doomsday

[Bridge]

You’ve gotta hurt to see the other side

It’s so much better when it happens a second time

You’re gonna come out on the other side

You’ll learn the hard way

[Outro]

When your life’s coming up doomsday

Coming up doomsday

When your life’s coming up doomsday

Life coming up doomsday

When your life’s coming up doomsday

Life coming up doomsday

When your life’s coming up doomsday

Life coming up doomsday
