[Verse 1]
In a world polluted inside
Let's pretend the nightmare is done
From the earth, the magma will rise
From the sea comes cancerous tides
When the meaning of life is the prophecy
Premonitions bring tragedy
Is there hope for humanity?
[Verse 2]
Molten fire flies through the sky
Burnin' high, eclipse of the sun
Blackened skies, rites of the night
3 days in darkness in 2012
[Verse 3]
Mother Earth's been withered in time
Already dead and we didn't even know it
Watch the stars to give us a sign
From above as the angels descend
For the meaning of life ends in agony
Raped by impurities
Not a chance for humanity
[Verse 4]
Molten fire flies through the sky
Burnin' high, eclipse of the sun
Blackened skies, rites of the night
3 days in darkness in 2012
[Verse 5]
Magma splits the earth and shifts below
Molten lava bursts and overflows
Rise as we wait, annihilate
Burning, Earth pulls to the Sun
Rise as we wait, obliterate
Burning, Earth pulls to the Sun
[Verse 6]
3 days in darkness in 2012
[Verse 7]
Major cities still blaze in the night
Burning ashes, they choke
From the earth, the magma will rise
Enveloped in poisonous smoke
So the meaning of life is the prophecy
Premonitions of tragedy
Still no hope for humanity
[Verse 8]
Molten fire flies through the sky
Burnin' high, eclipse of the sun
Blackened skies, rites of the night
3 days in darkness in 2012
Hey
