And back in ages past, when all was dark
|
A whirling chaos raged across the land
|
Survival of the cruelest left their mark
|
And evil came, and shook the hand of man
|
|
The brutal rampaged on their bloody way
|
The demons turned to gods, and gods to beasts
|
Unbroken cries of pain rang every day
|
While colder hearts prevailed, and sat to feast
|
|
And now these times approach us once again
|
No more will sing the solitary lark
|
The cruelest have returned, and they shall reign
|
In choking smoke and fire and endless dark
|
|
So if your heart is in it still, then stay
|
Remember, though, these are our final days
|
