6. The End? (7:13)
As we gaze uncertain of the future
Breaking dawn reveals impending rapture
The darkest days seem to fall behind us
We stand tall with pure defiance
Stench of death is thick with carcass and decay
Destiny obscured, have we been led astray?
Forge ahead, we will scale the mountain
We are focused on the path of inner light
Salvation, we are chanting of the sun
Dawn closer, we’re fearless to the end
Torch the dead, see the burning embers
Eradicate this disease, reclaim the earth
Bodies cleansed, our land purged of this nightmare
Standing tall with these who truly are aware
We survived, is it really over?
We are clinging to the thread human of life
Are these illusions in our minds?
Or will the plagues come back in time?
We will survive to find a new life?
Or will the rage reclaim us?
Feeding on our yearning of the end
Everything seems perfect and surreal
Cant help but wonder if this is the end
Look around as paranoia swells
Are we safe? Only time will tell
We feel uneasy
Vagabonds drifting all around
The aftermath of their global cleansing
We survived the attempt of mass genocide
Is this the end?
We are guided to the clean and promised land
Seek a life, live where darkness has an end
This horizon leads us to our freedom
Reminiscing, all the plague’s and death behind
Are these illusions in our minds?
Or will the plagues come back in time?
We will survive to find a new life?
Or will the rage reclaim us?
Feeding on our yearning of the end
Breaking dawn reveals impending rapture
The darkest days seem to fall behind us
We stand tall with pure defiance
Stench of death is thick with carcass and decay
Destiny obscured, have we been led astray?
Forge ahead, we will scale the mountain
We are focused on the path of inner light
Salvation, we are chanting of the sun
Dawn closer, we’re fearless to the end
Torch the dead, see the burning embers
Eradicate this disease, reclaim the earth
Bodies cleansed, our land purged of this nightmare
Standing tall with these who truly are aware
We survived, is it really over?
We are clinging to the thread human of life
Are these illusions in our minds?
Or will the plagues come back in time?
We will survive to find a new life?
Or will the rage reclaim us?
Feeding on our yearning of the end
Everything seems perfect and surreal
Cant help but wonder if this is the end
Look around as paranoia swells
Are we safe? Only time will tell
We feel uneasy
Vagabonds drifting all around
The aftermath of their global cleansing
We survived the attempt of mass genocide
Is this the end?
We are guided to the clean and promised land
Seek a life, live where darkness has an end
This horizon leads us to our freedom
Reminiscing, all the plague’s and death behind
Are these illusions in our minds?
Or will the plagues come back in time?
We will survive to find a new life?
Or will the rage reclaim us?
Feeding on our yearning of the end
