End of Days

Ancient evil rises from the grave,
Blackened souls lurk with vile intent.
Here to ravage Earth and man enslave,
So they can bask in our discontent.

Death runs amok across the land,
Billions die in less than a week.
A mass extinction is soon at hand,
With no repentance at all to seek.

The execution of man and beast,
The whole world pays for all our sins.
Nations topple from West to East,
God bows his head and Satan wins.

Why weren't we able to maintain peace?
Those reasons remain a mystery.
With no one left to pay our lease,
The house of man lost in history.
