Look back on creation
A long road to where life begun
Right from the start, we had walked all the way
The final strait we had run
Now look at the world
An image of hell that has come
The cauldron of life, now melting away
Billions of years that's gone

It's the reason for destruction
The nature of the beast

The devil's rejoicing
This night that'll never end
Unforgiving darkness
This nightmare's not pretend
Life is just illusion
A piece of time we hold
Captured in our madness
The day the sun turned cold

The cities on fire
The world is aflame
Our prayers they were answered before
But this time we will burn
Our tears in the clouds
Our blood in the rain
As the earth lies in darkness once more
Will it see life again?

As the sun hides forever
The world is brought to its knees
The skies they will hold the ashes of time
The seas of blood, they will freeze
Searching through the darkness
The ghostly sounds ride the wind
Seeing the souls of all history gone
Kissing goodbye to their friend

It's the reason for destruction
The nature of the beast

The devil's rejoicing
This night that'll never end
Unforgiving darkness
This nightmare's not pretend
Life is just illusion
A piece of time we hold
Captured in our madness
The day the sun turned cold

The cities on fire
The world is aflame
Our prayers they were answered before
But this time we will burn
Our tears in the clouds
Our blood in the rain
As the earth lies in darkness once more
Will it see life again?
