The Red Darkness
"We can now destroy or we can cherish - the choice is ours" David Attenborough
"This is metal, so it needs to be heavy" - Larcs Lyrics
in the darkness, voices cry
earth aches but no oath is sworn
rivers of human souls deny
until red sky in earth's early morn
we need a voice who will sing
wake up, wake up, humanity
a harmony to make alarms ring
break up, break up, insanity
nature's blight still in advance
Sapiens fight for their redress
a delighted reaper performs his dance
and nothing left in the nuclear mess
we need a voice who will sing
wake up, wake up, humanity
a harmony to make alarms ring
break up, break up, insanity
just you and me left in this nightmare
the others left before tomorrow
too late to voice that they care
the red darkness voices only sorrow
we need a voice who will sing
wake up, wake up, humanity
a harmony to make alarms ring
break up, break up, insanity
dark will deny, cry, and lie
red is the dread, bled and dead
hear the voice
wake up, wake up, humanity
its our choice
break up, break up, insanity
will you
wake up, wake up, humanity
will you
break up, break up, insanity
