The Apocalyptic Theater

The curtain falls Desolation and decay enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Somehow, a strange beauty gleams The forceful descent slowly dawns No caress to fall upon This hidden portrait A ceaseless wonder of time We reach out and what do we find? Not a whisper in the wind A slither in the cracks Not a soul on this plain Tears of the Earth begin to rain The tears of the earth Desolation enthralls Upon this horrendous scene Desolation enthralls Failure, to fulfil our dreams Sorrow, our hopes recede Hatred, seemed our only path Shadows, will ever last Newborn rivers begin to flow An elusive story never to be told Into oblivion we fade For the monumental mistakes we made Now, the curtains, they rise Forevermore, we watch with lifeless eyes
