  • Obscured by the sun
    Apocalyptic clash
    Cities fall in ruin
    Why must we die?

    Obliteration of mankind
    Under a pale gray sky
    We shall arise

    I did nothing, saw nothing
    Terrorist confrontation
    Waiting for the end
    Wartime conspiracy

    I see the world, old
    I see the world, dead

    Victims of war, seeking some salvation
    Last wish, fatality
    I've no land, I'm from nowhere
    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

    Face the enemy
    Manic thoughts
    Religious intervention
    Problems remain Writer/s: Andreas Rudolf Kisser, Igor Cavalera, Massimiliano A. Cavalera, Paulo Xisto Jr. Pinto

  • Charlotte Hayes from TexasLove you guys rock my favorite band. Keep on rocking and writing I love it. God bless!!
  • Urqwan from RijekaI listen to this song whwnever I feel too much of society decline. Recently, too often.
  • Dzo from AtlantaAnd so it goes
    This fight we fight
    May never slow
    May never show
    A sign of ending
    This is war
    No need pretending
    Many die
    So many live
    So many now
    They will give
    All they have
    To stop this curse
    As they lay down
    Nothings worse
    Heroes made
    From common people
    To fight the foe
    And it's heart of evil
    Times of terror
    Times of pain
    Not much time left
    For us to gain
    A hold on this
    Before we perish
    Each second given
    Should be cherished
    So hug your children
    And loved ones too
    For tomorrow is never
    Promised to me or you.
    Thanks to all the heroes
    On the frontlines, songfacts
    For this blog, and all the essential
    Workers that keep us going.
