What Lies Ahead

In the twilight of the modern age
Consumed by wars that we wage
Blinded by the flash of light
Can't resist the fallout

The light breaks through the sky
The passage wide and bright

Endless catastrophe
Bear witness, we will see
What lies ahead
On this road
To the end

How could we be so careless
Corrupting all the weakest
As the bombs drop
All is naught
But blaze and dust and ash

The cycle's run its course
Reset by brute force

Endless catastrophe
Bear witness, we will see
What lies ahead
On this road
To the end

Baptized in nuclear flame
The world is reclaimed
A planet scorched to its core
Lifeless forevermore

Endless catastrophe
Bear witness, we will see
What lies ahead
On this road

I wonder what would be
If only they had seen
What laid ahead
Of this world
In the end
