The sun set on a perfect day
But then it rose only to say
"it's wrong, there's something wrong"
They woke up to a burning sound
Cars piled up and planes came crashing down
And from the church there rings no song
All the people who went there are gone
They're all gone, the world looks up as if to say
"you'd better get yourself back
Down here right away"
In the twinkling of an eye, we will say goodbye
It might be today when all we know
Is going to change, because we're going up
And we're not coming down
And we won't have to do what they say
It might be today, they told us
Not to hold out breath
"look at the facts, your God's not coming back"
He's coming back, what goes up must come down
But not this time around, when we hear that
Sound, we're not coming down, it might be today
But then it rose only to say
"it's wrong, there's something wrong"
They woke up to a burning sound
Cars piled up and planes came crashing down
And from the church there rings no song
All the people who went there are gone
They're all gone, the world looks up as if to say
"you'd better get yourself back
Down here right away"
In the twinkling of an eye, we will say goodbye
It might be today when all we know
Is going to change, because we're going up
And we're not coming down
And we won't have to do what they say
It might be today, they told us
Not to hold out breath
"look at the facts, your God's not coming back"
He's coming back, what goes up must come down
But not this time around, when we hear that
Sound, we're not coming down, it might be today
