Eclipse Of Mankind

Wasted tears of sadness fall

on an acid ground

there's no vision left to realise

self destruction all around

We ignored the danger

all warnings left unheard

to return it's too late

bound to our fate

we feel like a flightless bird

There's no hope, no future

all (our) (true) values slain

meanless words to disperse our fear

empty promises drown in pain

All honest feeling

are caught in chains

we believed all the lies

now pay the price

despair flowing through our reins

In a world of madness

ruled by war and crime

where violence cries

for more sacrifice

quite at home in perverted rhymes

We pray for rescue

but all in vain

no tomorrow for change

for the future is now

as only little time remains

Vanity and pride

brought blindness in strife

true values held in hide

still burning inside

captured in the claws of fear we enter

the eclipse of mankind
