the days are warm
and the nights are young
into the sun
past oblivion
like a burned out star
but it's just begun
in the glow
of radiation

i am whole
and i'm feeling strong
into the sun
where the earth belongs
no one knows
how far we've gone
into the void
of annihilation

(and i am whole)

basking in the sun
it's all so peaceful in the glow
alpha/beta, x/gamma rays and the
hell down below
basking in the sun
it's all so peaceful in the glow

the genius of humanity
enables calculated atrocities
abstract theory yields
decimation and toxicity

degeneration of every zoetic cell
in this wasteland
axiological value of sickness over health
by tyrants

when the flame burns
red with anger
life is just a flickering shadow
and into the darkness we fall
blame is no solace as we
mourn the dead and the gone

acceptance of transience
and the suffering of existence
the crippling hate that we possess
impedes the path to forgiveness

degneration of every zoetic cell
in this wasteland
axiological value of sickness over health
by tyrants

when the flame burns
red with anger
life is just a flickering shadow
and into the darkness we fall
blame is no solace as we
mourn the dead and the gone

15 more days
and the sun's cruel rays
beat us down, grind us down
into sand and dust

the bones of the fallen
line the canyon walls
milestones of futility
mark 15 more hours
15 more miles
15 more steps

disintegration of the bio-EM field
souls dispersed by cascade effect and ionization
across the golden horizon

a betrayal of the faith in mankind
the madmen perpetuated their lies
no one stopped them
no one bothered to try
and the warlords rained down death from the sky

cloaked in the flag as they proselytize
don't you know that god is on our side
no one listened
no one heard our outcry
and the warlords rained down death from the sky

how can we believe in this madness?
how could this come to pass in our civilization?
how can we believe in truth and justice when
faith is the instrument of control and corruption?

a betrayal of the faith in mankind
disinformation leads to war by design
blood for oil
blood runs through the pipelines
and the warlords rained down death from the sky

lust for power led to western decline
heroes are just murderers in disguise
blood for freedom
blood spilled for the divine
and the warlords rained down death from the sky

now the disillusioned are united
in the aftermath of destruction
we can start again and rebuild a brand new world
from the ruins of the fallen empires
