End of the World Lyrics


I don’t wanna ride this rollercoaster
think I wanna get off
but they’ve buckled me down like it’s
the end of the world
if you don’t wanna have this conversation
then you’d better get out
cause we’re climbing to our death
at least that’s what they want you tot think
just in case we jump the track
I have a confession to make
but it’s something like a corkscrew
I don’t wanna fall, I don’t wanna fly
I don’t wanna be dangled over
the edge of a dying romance
but I don’t wanna stop. I wanna lie
I don’t wanna believe its over
I just wanna stay with you tonight

I didn’t mean to scream out quite so loudly
when we screeched to a halt, I’m just never
prepared for the end of the ride
maybe we should get on something simpler
mike a giant balloon?
I’ve got two tickets left, and so do you
instead of giving them away to some
stranger, let’s get back in line again
and ride the big one
don’t you wanna fall?
don’t you wanna fly?
don’t you wanna be dangled over the edge
of this aching romance?
and it it’s gonna end then I wanna know
that we squeezed out every moment
but if there is nothing left
can you tell me why that it is
you’re holding onto me like it’s
the end of the world?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Hey, I'm Matt. This is my first album. It's called Hide Nothing. My friend Matt Moody helped me out with the title (sometimes you need a friend to help you see yourself more clearly.) I made the record largely at home on with Jeff Crerie on our mac's (utmosis.net.)

I've always been a choir-geek. At one point I was in 12 different choirs at once. There's something amazing about making music with your voices together before it becomes your job or a career. After college, I did get a job singing full-time with the classical men's acapella group, Chanticleer (chanticleer.org). We recorded 2 Grammy® Award-winning albums in the 5 years I toured with those amazing guys.

I left the group to see if I could take the melodies in my head and turn them into songs. Life threw me some curve-balls and it took me 3.5 years to finish the record completely. I hope when people listen to these songs they feel closer to themselves.

If you'd like to let me know how they make you feel, that'd be swell.
