Apocalypse

Do you remember jet skies with glittering stars
Now the sky lies embittered and lacerated with scars.
The prophets have fallen, yet their words ring true
Harbingers of doom, if only we knew.
The world is destroyed, nature's beauty we smash
Now all that lies as remnants is smoky ash.
Burning skies, proliferating drugs and bars
Greed and addictions, polluting cars.

CHORUS
The human race has scarred our world
Ravaged as it as in space it swirled.
If aliens would visit us in posterity
All they'd see is our sheer barbarity.

People are falling, Mother Earth destroyed
Her people are sick and unemployed.
Our future is blemished, a veritable smear
Can we say that we're sincere?

The human race is failing, our hearts are turning leaden
By this approaching Armageddon.
Enriched we are, yet we cannot show care
Of our path of destruction, we are not aware.

Apocalypse...

2. Are we on a path of no return?
Are we gone like the forests that we burn?
Cannot we open our eyes and see
That we have twisted nature's harmony?
Our fantasies of endless greed
To what finale do they lead?
Are Tikal's predictions to be believed
With our ties with nature severely cleaved?

[Chorus]

3. Forests are now a thing of myth
One or two, much like the Sith.
We have machinery, bulldozers and cranes
For destroying our trees and scarring our plains.
All the communities have together warred
In a land where honesty is abhorred.
We act like beasts, all uncouth
Our societies are all going south...

[Chorus]
(Apocalypse)x3
