## Description

*Short summary of the story. The woman sees doom coming so she prepares. The man thinks she's getting kind of crazy from her old age. The doom stuff happens and he realizes she was right. They end up in the tower and see a photo of themselves with their son Steve (from cubeland) holding his pig. You realize they are in hardcore mode, so once they pass away the old world is deleted and a new world is made. They are young again because they have to start over.*

## Lyrics

(verse 1)

Yesterday it rained

Watched everything wash away

It took some time to dry

Before I could feel okay

I used all my tools

Foundation of clay

You kept digging this hole

But climbing's not my forte

(pre-chorus)

Take what you need

We can fight our enemies

But we have to hurry before

the world crumbles around us

(chorus)

Take my hand

We can build a land from the ground up

I don't even mind

leaving it behind us

Watch and wait and work until it all falls down

Down, down, down, until it all falls down

(verse 2)

Today the sky fell

Clouds in disarray

I put back all the blue

Before the sun could complain

There were stars everywhere

Zombies at my gate

Now that the end is near

Nothing left to do but wait

(pre-chorus 2)

Are we prepared?

Are we there?

Do you even care

Now I am afraid, but it's okay

The world crumbles around us

(chorus)

Take my hand

We can build a land from the ground up

I don't even mind

leaving it behind us

Watch and wait and work until it all falls down

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down

(pre-chorus 3)

Are we prepared?

Are we there?

Do you even care

Now I am afraid, but it's okay

The world crumbles around us

(chorus)

Take my hand

We can build a land from the ground up

I don't even mind

leaving it behind us

Watch and wait and work until it all falls

Watch and wait and work until it all falls down

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down

## Trivia

* The framed picture shows that they survived 21,943 days in their hardcore world and are around 20 years old in the picture, so with basic math, they are presumed to be around 80 years old.
* This video is one of the fewest videos to not feature any main characters. (eg. Dave, Bart)
