End of the World
Smile Empty Soul Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tears of angels falling
Children's mothers calling
And I'm not even looking down
And miss these demons hit the ground

Little babies crying
Pretty ladies trying
To bring some order to their worlds
The lord is with you little girl

And I don't know what to do
But sit here and wait for the end of the world
And I don't know what to do
But sit here and wait for the end of the world

And I don't know what to do
But sit here and wait for the end of the world




And I don't know what to do
But sit here and wait for the end of the world

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Smile Empty Soul's song End of the World showcases a sense of helplessness in the face of chaos and destruction. The singer lists out the heartbreaking scenes of tears and cries from angels and children's mothers as they witness the demons fall to the ground. It is a moment of reckoning where humanity realizes that they are powerless against the impending doom. The singer sees and hears everything, but he is not moved enough to act upon it. He merely sits and waits for the end of the world.


The second verse further emphasizes the vulnerability of human life. Babies are crying, and women are struggling to make sense of the mess around them. The only consolation is their faith in the Lord, who watches over the little girl. The singer, once again, feels helpless and unsure of what to do in the face of such enormous suffering. The repetition of the line "And I don't know what to do" is a stark reminder of how powerless humanity can be in the face of natural disasters and tragedies.


Overall, the song End of the World embodies a sense of despair and resignation, which is often felt in times of crisis. The lyrics remind us of our vulnerability and the limits of our power in the face of catastrophes. It is a reminder to cherish what little time we have and appreciate the beauty in the world until the very end.
