Everything Went Black (Live)

Crawling the walls
Through every crack and crevice teems
Blackness washing over the windowpanes
Painting the buildings in between.

Creeping down the alley ways, consuming every street
Soundless swarm of nothingness sure to doom us all
Pulling screaming earthlings into its toothless jaws
Endlessly beginning, spreading with no sign of stop.

Horror of horrors, truly maddening in size
Running just prolongs the end, inevitably it strides.

Where has it come from? How can it be stopped?
So quickly we're to meet our end our empire we have lost
Karmatic armageddon no religion could foresee
A planet once forsaken, not even a memory.

Streetlights bend into the void, cars enveloped whole
Darkness deeper than a blindman's sleep soon to paint the world.

Insatiable its hunger, it drinks the sea without a belch
Stretching to the other side where it is sure to meet itself.

Unearthly vacuum devouring
The hourglass now empty, it's time to say goodbye
Watching your life flash before mortal eyes
Terror fills your heart, screams of anguish greet your ears
Living death, voracious, insidious, impervious to damage
We are slaughtered as if lambs.

Horror of horrors truly maddening in size
Running just prolongs the end inevitably it strides.

Where has it come from? How can it be stopped?
So quickly we're to meet our end our empire we have lost
Karmatic armageddon no religion could foresee
A planet once forsaken, not even a memory.
