How It Ends Lyrics

It talks about tragic things which you already know what’s going to happen.Hold your grandmother's Bible to your breastGonna put it to the testYou wanted it to be blessedAnd in your heartYou know it to be trueYou know what you got to doThey all depend on youAnd you already knowYeah, you already know how this will endThere is no escape from the slave catcher's songsFor all of the loved ones goneForever's not so longAnd in your soulThey poked a million holesBut you never let them showCome on, it's time to goAnd you already knowYeah, you already know how this will endNow you've seen his faceAnd you know there's a place in the sunFor all that you've doneFor you and your childrenSee DeVotchKa LiveGet tickets as low as $45You might also likeNo longer shall you needYou always wanted to believeJust ask and you'll receiveBeyond your wildest dreamsAnd you already knowYeah, you already know how this will endYou already love will end1EmbedCancel

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
