Blackened Horizon

Cracked asphalt stretches, a desolate scar (Earth bleeds beneath our scars)
Sun bleeds crimson, choked by the ash and the char (No solace in the dying star)
Cities like husks, monuments to our sin (Whispers on the wind)
Silence screams, where laughter once did begin (A hollow echo, a world wearing thin)

Blackened horizon, a canvas of despair (No light to pierce the suffocating air)
The earth cracks open, a ravenous maw (Swallowing hope in its fiery maw)
We built a pyre, danced with the flames (Now ashes choke us, whisper our names)
This ravaged wasteland, a monument to our shame (Blackened horizon, whispering our name)

Rusted hulks stand, skeletal sentinels (Monuments to fallen empires)
Twisted steel claws at a sky forever veiled (No solace in the heavens we failed)
Starving scavengers fight for the scraps we left behind (A desperate scramble for what we can't find)
Empty eyes reflect a world devoid of its kind (Mirrors to a humanity left behind)

Blackened horizon, a canvas of despair (No light to pierce the suffocating air)
The earth cracks open, a ravenous maw (Swallowing hope in its fiery maw)
We built a pyre, danced with the flames (Now ashes choke us, whisper our names)
This ravaged wasteland, a monument to our shame (Blackened horizon, whispering our name)

A skeletal wind howls a mournful song (A dirge for empires fallen, long gone)
Is there a memory of what we used to be? (Lost in the dust, a forgotten symphony)
Can life bloom again from this barren ground? (Or are we forever to this wasteland bound?)
Blackened horizon, a canvas of despair (No light to pierce the suffocating air)
The earth cracks open, a ravenous maw (Swallowing hope in its fiery maw)
We built a pyre, danced with the flames (Now ashes choke us, whisper our names)
This ravaged wasteland, a monument to our shame (Blackened horizon, whispering our name)
