The End

blood flows through the streets like water
the painful dying has begun
they'll rip the flesh right off our bones
run and hide before it's too late
how long we have endured this I forgot
someone please save us
the strange creatures of time are attacking
men are fighting and dying
quick save us before it's too late
take us away from this god forsaken place
is death our only friend?
tell all the people they'll soon be free
free of this torturous hell
pass the drugs and pass the knives 
our savior never came
our salvation never achieved 
the grim reality is upon us
there were no creatures only ourselves 
we slowly sing deaths song as our lives slip away
no goodbye cruel world just silence and peace at last
