Look back on creation A long road to where life begun Right from the start, we had walked all the way The final strait we had run Now look at the world An image of hell that has come The cauldron of life, now melting away Billions of years that’s gone It’s the reason for destruction The nature of the beast The devil’s rejoicing This night that’ll never end Unforgiving darkness This nightmare’s not pretend Life is just illusion A piece of time we hold Captured in our madness The day the sun turned cold The cities on fire The world is aflame Our prayers they were answered before But this time we will burn Our tears in the clouds Our blood in the rain As the earth lies in darkness once more Will it see life again? As the sun hides forever The world is brought to its knees The skies they will hold the ashes of time The seas of blood, they will freeze Searching through the darkness The ghostly sounds ride the wind Seeing the souls of all history gone Kissing goodbye to their friend It’s the reason for destruction The nature of the beast The devil’s rejoicing This night that’ll never end Unforgiving darkness This nightmare’s not pretend Life is just illusion A piece of time we hold Captured in our madness The day the sun turned cold The cities on fire The world is aflame Our prayers they were answered before But this time we will burn Our tears in the clouds Our blood in the rain As the earth lies in darkness once more Will it see life again?
