Semantically, End is a goal or final outcome or end of something, Ending is the conclusion to something that is often applied to stories, or the final part of something (ex a word). They're both technically the same but they have slightly different contexts in which they are applied.

They are also two tenses of a verb but we don't have to go into that.

If you want to get somewhat more technical, it should be Four Endings. End is almost never used plurally, and if it is then it's usually not connoting the conclusion of something but the extreme or final desired outcome of something (such as "the ends justifies the means"). Ending would be more appropriate as connoting that these are planned out endings to the story/world of Evillious.

To put it another way, "End of the World" suggests the world is ending but "Ends of the World" suggests the far reaches of the globe. "Ending of the World" is awkward despite making sense but "Endings of the World" suggests they are different ways the world could end.

But again--that's a weaker argument than the simple fact that they're referred to as endings in the song.
