lyrics

As fleeting moments of time yet passed slide past, my eyes.
I’m tormented by the images of what lies ahead.

Given these visions of a world in ruin.
Leveled by our own hands. With nothing left but dust!

We all fall, if we don't change our ways.
I call out to all the people, my screams of warning go unheard.
Nothing can phase them, trapped in their dreamlands, as our world goes up in flames.

And I start to question myself.
Are these visions deterministic? Or are they just a possibility?
I try to stay optimistic, but we're all fighting probability.

Stuck in their haze. We can't change. It’s always the same.
We’re not trying to save what we hold dear.
Our world is dying, and we’re controlled by fear.
As madness takes hold, the warmth in the world is going cold, again.

It’s our fault. We failed.
I call out to all the people, my screams of warning go unheard.
Nothing can phase them, trapped in their dreamlands, as our world goes up in flames.

I call out. Nothing can phase them. My screams of warning go unheard!
Nothing left but dust. I've seen the way this ends
We all fall. Our fate is sealed away.
If we can’t change. Our time is almost up.
So, we all fall.
