All That Awaits Us

Avarice, apathy, virtue dies

Wicked hearts, hubris filled, self-destruct

Illusions fade, tipping point, social collapse

Be afraid, no longer can we fool ourselves

Storms of fire ablaze with hate, ignite the skies

Our falling empires writhe in fury, scratching violently to hold on

Tragic times, a sullen world, overrun

Collective malice, wipes away the pure of heart

The cracks appear, breaking down, slipping away

Crossing over, we've reached the point of no return

Our final act before we take our final bow

Abolishing our legacy, no mistake of what tomorrow brings

Is it truly darkest before the light?

Or is darkness all that awaits us

Tears for all the life we've taken

Regret for all the time we've wasted

So much was lost and nothing gained

Our sickness will soon be gone forever

Slowly fading out of existence

Close your eyes and weep no more

Slowly dimming, the beat of our hearts

Close your eyes and embrace a darkness without end
