Dusk

I lit the flame

Cascading
Catastrophe has razed the landscape
I obeyed
And now the order has taken its claim

Now I wonder
What's next for me
After abandoning
My humanity

A life spent recoiling
At each foreign being
Has kept us blinded to peace

And I've been wondering
What's the price we'll pay
When the dust comes
I had a part to play
But as the dusk comes
I'm afraid that I'll decay

A soul once forged of the strongest iron
Shallow depths harbor faint
Illuminations of empathy
And I
Can't discern whether I fucked up
Gave it all up for nothing
Or if I'm like my machines
Dictated by programming

And I've been wondering
What's the price we'll pay
When the dust comes
I had a part to play
But as the dusk comes
I'm afraid that I'll decay

As bombs light the way
Feels like we're suffocating
This atomic monster we made
Will our people suffer the same

Eternal flames
Annihilate

And I've been wondering
What's the price we'll pay
When the dust comes
I had a part to play
But as the dusk comes
I'm afraid that I'll decay
And I've been pondering
What's in store for us
When our time comes
I had a part to play
But as the dusk comes
I'm afraid that I'll decay
