Mankind's Darkest Day

Some say our world will end in fire; some say, in ice

What if it silently fades away, for nobody to recognize?

When compassion gets lost in vulcans of rage

The last prayer seems like an icon of a lost decade

[refrain:]

Some still try to avoid the darkest day

The fight unnoticed of the masses that have fallen

Can you see the light that points out of the darkness?

Or have you surrendered yourself to total hatred?

The world may end in a whisper, not a thunderous roar

But it may be as dead as after the atomic stroke

When caring about others disappears in clouds of dust

We will dwell alive in a grave the size of this earth

[refrain]

When did we lose track, was it right from the start?

But that we did is for sure, no one can deny

When the last of the fighting kind gives in

We see our own demons dance

Among the tears that we cry

[refrain]
