Dar Williams Picture
American singer-songwriterDar Williams lives at the intersection of popand folk. She fuses many genres (blues, rock, jazz), resulting in a rather organic sound. She has been making music for over a decade. Her most recent studio album, "My Better Self," finds Dar at an unequivocally brazen crossroads. Reflecting on American politics, the disillusionment and apathy of youth, and the female experience, Dar makes no apology for her outspoken beliefs.

The World's Not Falling Apart Lyrics

Dar Williams

Welcome to the golden age of speed with grace
waiting for the angry gods to smite our race
i logged on to Africa in just one day
i opened a door and that's OK
it's not an end it's just a start
not an end it's just a start
the world's not falling apart
the world's not falling apart
because of me
i have watched the kids who make their scenes
i have met the riot girls who print their zines
they write the word, they raise a thought
they say who they are, they try what they're not
because life is such a changing art
life is such a changing art
the world's not falling apart
the world's not falling apart
because of me
the closest thing to God that i have heard
is when i knew i did not have the final word
you say the world has lost its love
i say embrace what it's made of
i'll snake a camera to your heart
snake a camera to your heart
the world's not falling apart
the world's not falling apart
because of me
