So here we are
You thought you’d seen it all
Still amongst the living after the fall
The burning rock fell from the sky
Laid waste to old world most did die
Roaming the fire
Adapting to ash
Scavenging to survive
Time and pressure
Make us clash
Feeding off each other when we can
The decisions that we make
Beg the question “are we still human?”
Resources dwindle fast
Ill desperation haunts the land
Our morals crumble steadily
Sadly our souls deteriorate
We’ll soon expire
The threshold maxed
Arms in air some do cry
Why God have you turned blind eye
To think you’ve seen the worst
Brutal truth shall surely hurt
Existence may be a gift
But ever entwined with suffering
“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”
Fooling ourselves for how much longer?
Pushing ‘gainst nature’s grain
Kidding ourselves that we’re still sane
The shame
Endless pain
Living in aftermath
Old world long gone
Those left the remnant insane
Carry on
Sobbing as they chew
Recent allies become food
Slowly mans flame dies out
No energy to shout
This world once majestic
Our lost nobility
Taking eyes for eyes
Whats left of mankind
No longer sees
Feeding on each other while we can
The decisions that we’ve made
There’s no question no longer human
To think you’ve seen the worst
Brutal truth shall surely hurt
Existence may be a gift
But ever entwined with suffering
“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”
Fooling ourselves for how much longer?
Pushing ‘gainst nature’s grain
Kidding ourselves that we’re still sane
The shame
Endless pain
Living in aftermath
