In today's news Humanity has been forsaken Drained the hourglass sand Awakened the apocalypse and Nature's retaken her land Humanity is being shaken The foundations of society that were laid Have been decayed, outweighed, and displayed To us in the form of the very blade That we once used, to wage war And what for? Humanity has been mistaken Used, abused, and pillaged the earth Enslaving her children right after birth Taking from her in abundance and dearth Thinking she won't fight back, what was it all worth? Humanity will be forgotten All attempts of men to be immortalised Kings and leaders throughout history - none wise Will fail to stand in the face of time For, self destruction is our paradigm This is our swansong right to the end This is our swansong, can't make amends
