Apocalypse

Shadowless sundown
Beating down the pyre
Intake from the boys around
Persistence to admire

Genesis of honest thoughts
Fear melts me to the wire
Apocalypse, the greedy bought
We dance around the fire

Weeping Prophets sing the news
While sunshine slowly loses time
The days will melt into a noose
Finding solace in a rhyme

The castles crumble into ash
Burning grass, the aftermath
Hearts are beating for the cash
Fallen order, feel the wrath

Fearless dancers on the sun
Aimless paths where we begun
Endless wars we never won
To have some fun; a loaded gun
