When the World ends

When the World Ends

Genre: Cinematic Orchestral Pop / Spy Ballad

Theme: Love, sacrifice, destiny, and hope in the face of the end of the world.

Verse 1

The sky is dressed in shades of grey,

Like it already knows the price we'll pay.

Cities fade beneath the rain,

But you're the one thing that remains.

The clocks are slowing, time stands still,

We're holding on against our will.

Every heartbeat draws us near,

Even with the end so clear.

Pre-Chorus

If the stars should lose their light,

If tomorrow never comes...

I'll still be standing by your side,

Until the silence overcomes.

Chorus

When the world ends,

I'll be holding your hand.

When the fire falls from heaven,

We'll still make our stand.

When the oceans kiss the sky,

When every dream has said goodbye,

Love will echo through the dark...

You'll forever have my heart.

Verse 2

Mountains crumble into dust,

But somehow I still trust.

Every tear becomes a sea,

Washing every memory.

No more kingdoms left to save,

Only promises we gave.

Even if the stars all fade,

Our love will never be erased.

Pre-Chorus

If the night becomes forever,

If hope is hard to find...

I'll still hear your voice

Calling softly through my mind.

Chorus

When the world ends,

I'll be holding your hand.

When the fire falls from heaven,

We'll still make our stand.

When the oceans kiss the sky,

When every dream has said goodbye,

Love will echo through the dark...

You'll forever have my heart.

Bridge

No throne can last forever,

No empire escapes time.

But every soul that truly loves

Leaves something still alive.

So let the heavens shake tonight,

Let the thunder write our names.

If this is where our story ends,

Love will outlive every flame.

Final Chorus

When the world ends,

Don't you close your eyes.

We'll become the constellations

Lighting future skies.

When the darkness calls my name,

I'll remember why you came.

Even when the stars descend...

Our love won't end...

When the world ends.

Outro

(Soft piano, orchestra, and choir fading into silence)

"If tomorrow never finds us...

Meet me where the stars begin...

When the world ends."
