EXU Calamity is a Critical Role prequel mini-series, about the downfall of an ancient civilisation centuries before the events of the main show. It has entirely eaten my brain since it aired last summer. I was so excited to find this haunting cover of the song and had a great time making this. All fanworks used linked below the cut.

lyrics:
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
And I feel fine

It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time I had some time alone)
And I feel fine

That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes and aeroplanes
But oh, I am not afraid
World serves its own needs
Listen to your heart bleed
Tell me, with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched

It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (it's time I had some time alone)
And I feel fine

Time I had some time alone
Time I had some time alone
Time I had some time alone
Time I had some time alone

It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
And I feel fine

And I feel fine

I feel fine
