Earth's End
When it's time for the end
We await the one to send
Everything must slowly die
Even if we wonder why
Innocence was assuredly lost
But we never imagined the cost
A generation cast
Before the first nuclear blast
A future full of sorrow
It slowly becomes tomorrow
Ignorance bred hate
That sealed our fate
Silly secular reasons
Damned our natural seasons
Endless pursuit of cash
History's greatest rehash
It really didn't have to be this way
Time is running out for us to stay
Before the clock strikes midnight
We must rise up and fight
United we have the greatest power
To prevent Earth's darkest hour
We await the one to send
When it's time for the end
