Story behind the song
I was thinking about the current state of the economy, and about my older relatives talking about the Great Depression, and how it seems that names change, but the basic story stays the same, and this song came out of it.
Lyrics
The economy is in the tank, there's no money in the banks We're all sliding into debt, haven't reached the bottom yet When it's as bad as it can get, on one thing you can bet We'll forget and do it all again It's the end and the beginning, it's a circle never ending The wheel of life is spinning, Going round and round and round It's the end and the beginning, the beginning and the ending The angels are descending, we're going down and down and down The world is coming to an end, right back where it all began Resources fading mighty fast, not even trying to make them last We'll reach the limits of our minds, and we'll put it all behind But at that time we'll find, we're back where we began It's the end and the beginning, it's a circle never ending The wheel of life is spinning, Going round and round and round It's the end and the beginning, the beginning and the ending The angels are descending, we're going down and down and down It's the end and the beginning,the beginning and the end It's the end and the beginning It's the end and the beginning It's the end and the beginning And the beginning and the end
