Apocalypse by The Correspondents Lyrics
[Intro]
We'll be (We'll be)
We'll be
[Chorus]
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down
[Verse 1]
We could'a made it
We could'a made this whole thing work
But we were distracted
And now the world has gone berserk
Just bec'se the flood ain't lappin' at my front door doesn't mean I shouldn't care anymore
Just bec'se I never breathe in the dust of war doesn't mean I could ignore what I saw
On multiple screens
Multiple scenes
Multiple screams from unknown but familiar faces
Could've been us, could've been us, could've been us
Had we been born in different places
[Pre-Chorus]
But we're to blame
I'll tell ya that for free
This ain't no game
Can't you see it's a catastrophe?
[Chorus]
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down (to the ground)
Full force into the apocalypse
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down (to the ground)
Full force into the apocalypse
[Bridge 1]
But I can see
Full force into the
But I can see
(It's a catastrophe)
[Verse 2]
But I can see
That it's tricky to care when no-one knows the facts
But I can see
That it's tough enough for us to watch our own backs
Do you think they'll be a call to action
When we're living in the age of a thousand distractions
Another episode of an un-missable box set
Another toy you're gonna want that's not in the shops, yeah
But still, you know we can't get enough
The third generation, addicted to stuff
And our point-based friendships measured in likes
Will keep us too busy to see when tragedy strikes
[Pre-Chorus]
But we're to blame
I'll tell ya that for free
This ain't no game
Can't you see it's a catastrophe?
[Chorus]
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down (to the ground)
Full force into the apocalypse
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down (to the ground)
Full force into the apocalypse
[Bridge 2]
But read my lips
The rising heat won't
Make us wake up
[Outro]
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
(It's a catastrophe)
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
We'll be (We'll be)
We'll be
[Chorus]
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down
[Verse 1]
We could'a made it
We could'a made this whole thing work
But we were distracted
And now the world has gone berserk
Just bec'se the flood ain't lappin' at my front door doesn't mean I shouldn't care anymore
Just bec'se I never breathe in the dust of war doesn't mean I could ignore what I saw
On multiple screens
Multiple scenes
Multiple screams from unknown but familiar faces
Could've been us, could've been us, could've been us
Had we been born in different places
[Pre-Chorus]
But we're to blame
I'll tell ya that for free
This ain't no game
Can't you see it's a catastrophe?
[Chorus]
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down (to the ground)
Full force into the apocalypse
We'll be
Drivin'
Foot down (to the ground)
Full force into the apocalypse
[Bridge 1]
But I can see
Full force into the
But I can see
(It's a catastrophe)
[Verse 2]

(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
(It's a catastrophe)
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
(Full force into the)
