Lyrics

As the countdown continues and enters the final stage
the last remaining few gather their belongings and head for the port
The shiny ships await by the towers, ready to launch a new beginning
In the gathering gloom faces project the sorrow and fear, sprinkled with hope
Men, women, children with parcels tugged tight under their arms flock at the gates
ready to board the last departure
The sun was setting over the small crowd, with a bright red halo of beauty
as if to mock the leaving race with its paradox
Indeed a delightful sight, yet still indisputable proof of the pride and arrogance
that self-same race had cast upon their own home.
Wonder what went wrong
Will we ever learn?
What's the final song?
Where's the final turn?
The signs had been ignored for decades by those in power,
and by those to whom profit was God
Only a few dared to speak out, and were considered madmen, fanatics and even dangerous
So business went on as it always does, earning profit for the few
And the plants continued to eat up the sparse resources,
spewing out smoke and fume, until the sky was covered in tiny particles,
in which the light would fracture, and give such beautiful sunsets
And the majority would close their eyes to the truth, until it was far, far too late
Wonder what went wrong
Will we ever learn?
What's the final song?
Where's the final turn?
Wonder what went wrong
Who can show the way?
This is the final song
We are left to pray
Upon realizing the inevitable disaster, blame was issued, but never taken
The final solution was conceived, a fleet, in which to flee,
yet it would be reserved for a select few
As the decree was issued, panic spread
and the former so civilized people was reduced to a raving mob
Each man for himself, showing the primal behaviour of a predator
Destroying in the process what little was left
Numbers were reduced by the billions until only a few remained
Now standing on the ramp, the flock looks back at the wasteland behind
With regret? Yes! Guilt? Maybe, but Armageddon bears many faces
and this one is definitely human
And in the roar of combustion and fumes the silver spears leave the burning rock
Wonder what went wrong
Will we ever learn?
What's the final song?
Where's the final turn?
Wonder what went wrong
Will we ever learn?
What's the final song?
Where's the final turn?
Wonder what went wrong
Who can show the way?
This is the final song
We are left to pray
