A response to Chavez

In response to the proposed reforms of Hugo Chavez, dictator of Venezuela, I have posted a new song at Youtube, titled “The world ends today.”

You can listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNYB4HTUv6c

THE WORLD ENDS TODAY

Coming, going, nothing left to say

Everyone is leaving, the world ends today

I pack my things in a broken-hearted box

and I sink them, down below

I look at the people who once wanted to grow

The weatherman’s retiring, preparing for the storm

Their thoughts were for themselves, their thoughts were all wrong

Or at least that’s what they told us to think

Look at the bridges, there is nothing left to shake

Look at the questions, all the answers went away

I look again at the people who once wanted to grow

I used to hate them, but I would hate to see them go

I think I may still need them— that’s indeed a strange thought

But I’m thinking it, so can it be wrong?

Look at the lovers, all the kisses went away

Look at the leaders, they’re telling us to lift up our heads and sing along:

"Don’t believe you can be happy in this life

Don’t believe there is something else that we may try

Don’t believe we are more than we are

Don’t you believe it, 'cos the world ends today

The world ends today"

"Don’t believe you can be happy in this life

Don’t believe there is something else that you may have

Don’t believe THAT YOU ARE WHAT YOU ARE

Don’t you believe it, 'cos the world ends today

The world ends today"

The lyrics are inspiring, because I know that people will realize that this is what they are becoming

I hope so… these people are notorious for sticking with their ideas even against the most striking evidence.

wow that was quiet good. u could embody a character and change the voice for the chorus (like “Pink” in Waiting for the Worms, and IN the Flesh).

Very nice how u linked it, short term thinking, disaster thinking, I live in Argentina and it was truly touching , that’s exactly what I¡ve been hearing all my life.

Thanks for your comments. I live in Argentina too and the relationship between our government and Chavez has me very worried.
