New Model Army - End Of Days Lyrics






You know this end of days, will be a lot of days
Slow motion unfolding
Every small explosion leaves a fallout
There is dust there, in your footprints

The expression on your face says that you've been cheated
Well you've been cheated but not in the way that you think
When the high and the mighty spread their wings
Only shadowed things can grow in the shadows beneath

You say you're bored of the fireworks
Now you want to see the fire

It isn't just yet, we have to trample
Over each other, to reach air
We will mix and mend when we have to
We will celebrate when we can

We could climb up there to the source of the river
That runs through everything before it's gone
But when the high and the mighty spread their wings
Only shadowed things can grow in the shadows beneath

And we are bored of the fireworks
We want to see the fire
We're long past being careful
Of what we wish for

We can't go back to uninvent the wheels
That we ride to find a place
Like a punch thrown into space
That needs a place to land
A face to land, a face, a face

This end of days, is gonna be a lot of days
Slow motion unfolding

They're running out of tickets for the two-minute hate
The salespeople, they know every trick, click, click
Turn on the tap and the bile keeps coming
We will drown in the stuff long before it's too late

And we are bored of the fireworks
We want to see the fire
We're long past being careful
Of what we wish for

  4. L.... U....

    We are waiting Istanbul concert

  5. G.... T....

    My god! This song is so stuck in my head. Can’t wait to see NMA live!

  6. M.... S....

    Love cycling on Dartmoor listening to this album for over a month now -awesome simply awesome!

  7. E.... R....

    Recording an album in Norway, but not coming back for a gig. :(

  8. G.... V....

    Tickets to Vienna gig in pocket. My 16-year old is coming too. Can't wait!

  9. j.... ....

    Tick tock tick tock, slow motion death. Most of the comments seem to be about anything but the contents of the track!

  10. c.... ....

    Brilliant ❤️

  11. A.... G....

    There's no band that could do more heroic songs. Best alternative Band ever.

  12. M.... G....

    I know NMA since my friends started to listen back in 1988. I didn't like it very much, I was too young. Nowadays it is still my favorite band for a very long time along with the cure! perfect track and soon in front of me on stage! Please never stop making so beautiful music!

  13. R.... E....

    Well gee, looks Drumpf's ugly-contorted-hate-filled face at 3:25. "And the bile keeps coming."

  14. m.... b....

    Fucking beautiful!

  15. H.... ....

    one of the most touching and powerful songs in 2019!

  16. t.... ....

    I was in HMV yesterday when a song came on, it had to be NMA from the new album, I just stopped still and listened to the whole song mesmerised, not sure which one it was though

  17. J.... S....

    Thinking about the recent surge of forest fires in the Amazon rain forest while listening to this truly makes the heart sink ... I just feel like crying!

    J.... S....

    I like that you made a comment about the lyrics! Most of the comments seem to be vacuous shite

  18. J.... C....

    Wonderful song.come to greece again

  19. J.... S....

    Excellent

  20. m.... r....

    fire ...

  21. k.... ....

    kingvader
    Blind fools who can’t ‘see’ it!

  22. M.... F....

    Bloody magnificent, got to love N.M.A.👍

  23. J.... L....

    So glad Justin didn't become a train driver, or something. It would have been such a terrible waste!

    J.... L....

    Gary Platts
    Me neither!

    J.... L....

    He did work in a ship for some time iirc - and wrote navigating by the stars...

    J.... L....

    1chienandalou
    Absolutely brilliant album, not so easy to write whilst driving a train though eh? .... lol

    J.... L....

    Bet he'd have been a damn good train driver, though. Still, yeah, rather have him out here being one of the best songwriters in the world instead.

    J.... L....

    Justin Farrington
    Yep agreed! - much safer too

  24. P.... C....

    We're all Doomed 😢

    P.... C....

    ...aye, slo mo titanic supertanker versus iceberg crash...

  28. V.... ....

    the band i give thanks for exist everytime I listen. poetry and rythm straight to the heart...

    wish they come back to Brasil next tour...

  29. n.... ....

    Welcome back - we've missed you ....

  30. S.... ....

    So Amazon cancelled my pre order of the new cd today without any explanation and the NMA shop has the new album nowhere to be found for pre order. What happened?

  31. V.... ....

    i´m waiting.....

  32. g.... h....

    Seen nma in Leeds city centre playing an open air gig and I was walking back to the train station to go home and it was during thunder and consolation..they were playing inheritance...been a fan ever since..I missed the train home cos I watched the gig..this song is top quality...as always.

  33. T.... H....

    Loved you guys since hearing Ghost of Cain.

  34. g.... g....

    wow! that was excellent! I wasnt prepared for that....excellent job friends, you make me proud, and those whom are in the know. better than ever!

  35. W.... ....

    Sounds a lot like some of the stuff on "EIGHT"…

    W.... ....

    Wolf I love "eight"

  36. E.... T....

    One of the highlights of my music career was auditioning for the bass position in NMA when Nelson left. They are excellent dudes that make excellent music. Long live New Model Army!

    E.... T....

    In all fairness to you, I think they picked the right guy for the job

    E.... T....

    I totally agree.

    E.... T....

    I'm the right guy for this job... playing guitar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwzOPlJzOzU

  37. Q.... t....

    The guitarist is finally getting better. Took him long enough. What, like 15 years?
    I guess we'll see what the rest of the album is like.

  38. n.... ....

    Epic!!! ❤️

  39. A.... P....

    This is fantastic. Thank you

  40. t.... ....

    The greatest band on earth is back. Thank you, NMA, and much love and respect.

  41. d.... ....

    NMA.Reliable as always.Brilliant

  42. N.... N....

    This reminds me of the older stuff in a good way !

    N.... N....

    Oh so so much for sure
    I love this a LOT

  43. L.... 2....

    Not bad but not great either to be honest, sounds like a mixture of Winter and Guessing.

  44. F.... R....

    Tapping into the global psyche that knows deep down we will be our own downfall if we continue as we are. In short we're all kinda buggered 💀.
    Look forward to seeing you in Leeds.

  45. X.... W....

    Release on my Birthday, when im coming around the sun for 45 times

  46. n.... ....

    Nice - return to the old sound .....

  47. W.... H....

    Sounds like NMA Outtakes from the mid 80ies

  48. w.... ....

    Only listened to it another 8 times today ;)

  49. V.... R....

    One of my fav artists/bands since my first exposure on . . . hold on to your hat . . . MTV 120 minutes in the late 80s. The feel is always real, the message is relentless and awesome, and the music is always great. All the best! xo

    V.... R....

    I can beat that, first saw them in a tent in a park in Chapeltown in Leeds in 1982 with about 50 people there. Supporting a bad called Little Chief!

    V.... R....

    @Chris Butler :) awesome! have a a good one, cheers!

  50. L.... W....

    9 weeks ...

  51. w.... ....

  52. n.... n....

    hot hot August from a Winterplace, thank you NMA !

  53. C.... ....

    excellent

  54. L.... R....

    That.... is f***ing brilliant. Says it all. We're doomed, and we know it. But at least we're doomed with style.

  55. p.... m....

    En 2020 ils fêteront leurs 40ans d'existence
    Je les ai découverts à 16 ans avec l'excellent Thunder & Consolation, et 30 ans après, j'aime encore et ce morceau donne envie d"écouter le reste de l'album
    Bravo les gars

  56. P.... ....

    Sadly the link to the studio and island space in the intro words isn't working anymore. earMUSIC. Long live NMA

    P.... ....

    Pat
    Perhaps earMUSIC need the kick up the trousers!

  57. R.... L....

    Nergal sent me.

  65. A.... G....

    Damn...nice punch in the gut NMA style 🖤

  66. M.... B....

    I don't know how they do it. Get even shitter with every single record they release that is.

    M.... B....

    Nobody is forcing you to listen and watch. If you don't like it then it's your business. Better you go and troll elsewhere.

    M.... B....

    Mike B
    Sounds like you keep coming back though!

    M.... B....

    @John Parkinson aw did someone say something you didn't like about your favourite pop stars... Diddums, you shit eating little girl

    Casey Campbell
    They do say that you can’t educate pork! (Don’t worry, I don’t mean you) lol!

  74. P.... ....

    I'm glad they chose to release this at the equinox. i love the video images.

    P.... ....

    Pat
    Surely, isn’t that how it should be?

    P.... ....

    @Bright_Morning_ Star It really is.

    P.... ....

    @Bright_Morning_ Star NDE's my ass

    P.... ....

    That's not Heidi is it ffs?

    P.... ....

    @Bright_Morning_ Star Sorry I was getting mixed up with comments there too. didn't mean to belittle something which was obviously huge. I think Justin's NDE has given him a certain fatalism and probably a fearlessness as well. Have you found that with yr own experiences?

  75. A.... K....

    Awesome stuff as always! I like the rock and roll feeling of the song

  76. B.... F....

    Only epic tunes and lyrics goes so well with Joolz artwork! Both beautiful.

  77. D.... C....

    Possibly the best song I’ve heard for a couple of albums

  78. D.... D....

    Excellent new song, looking forward to the new album & tour now.
