Welcome the End

Where the is fire, there is smoke, and in that smoke out comes the inevitable day of men's downfall. The day when they finally and self destructibly turn its weapons against its own kind. The day of the blade in the sky, when your cities lay buried under radioactive rubble, and the sea is a dead sea, and the land is a wasteland, in which there will be no place for humans, and that day is upon you, now!!!

A distant thunder cracks the sky They’ve run out of sands of time Apocalyptic, catastrophic Never seen by human eyes They thought it would last forever what’s called humanity To try to love they could never So ends the misery Of my discoveries, there is no future For these beings that thrive on war Star ships aligning, targets in focus Disintegrating, they’ll be no more They thought it would last forever what’s called humanity To try to love they could never So ends the misery Wipe the tears they cry Let the darkness die With open arms I welcome the end Wipe the tears they cry Let the darkness die With open arms I welcome the end In a flash, the world is ash The colonies melt away A world in flames Themselves to blame The suffering ends today They thought it would last forever what’s called humanity To try to love they could never So ends the misery Wipe the tears they cry Let the darkness die With open arms I welcome the end Wipe the tears they cry Let the darkness die With open arms I welcome the end

Endless wars engaging Unstoppable eruption On the brink of destruction Blasphemy of all time Mocking the great creator Cloning killing machines, programmed eliminators Bringing forth corruption Deleting path of mankind Machines run amok, digital minds Man has crossed beyond forbidden zone He’s created life to call his own Mindless, heartless creations have begun Mindless, thoughtless, soulless inventions Change the great master plan Cyber world revolving Computerized beings emotionless evolving Legions march through the streets Wiping out the divine Annihilate the meek A human decline Man has crossed beyond forbidden zone He’s created life to call his own Mindless, heartless creations have begun Mindless, thoughtless, soulless inventions Out of control, no warning Devastation in path The price for blasphemy, man tasting his own wrath Man has crossed beyond forbidden zone He’s created life to call his own Mindless, heartless creations have begun Mindless, thoughtless, soulless inventions

Looking down, what a disaster Was it part of your intentions? After all, you are the master of this chaos and its creation Hurling up to the heavens, the cries of every nation Turning the page, the book closed, final retaliation Head in his hands, the time’s at hand, he’ll make a stand So many tries, hopeless he sighs, gently he cries The time has come to put an end to this charade The mockery of what you planned, of what you made Grieven by hateful crud, great animator Saddened by spilling blood Hopeless creator Launch prepared, awaiting command Warning ignored by masses Masterpiece only sculpted by your hands Into black, ashes to ashes No faith, the final decision Controlled, computerized life No hope, attacks with precision Turn back the hands of time The time’s at hand, he makes a stand and gives the command Hopeless he sighs, softly he cries, brings their demise The time has come to put an end to this charade The mockery of what you planned, of what you made Grieven by hateful crud, great animator Saddened by spilling blood Hopeless creator Looking, what a disaster No part of your intentions Show them you are the master So ends civilization Head in his hands, he made a stand and gave the command So many tries, so many sighs, softly he cries The time has come to put an end to this charade The mockery of what you planned, of what you made Grieven by hateful crud, great animator Saddened by spilling blood Hopeless creator

The doom awakening foreseen light years ago Punishment in flames approaching like a molten sky Wrath in his eyes blazing This burning god appears The watcher out gazing A distant thunder draws near Creator of what was righteous awaits to make his stand Targets the world with his anger, his hammer strikes down Wrath in his eyes blazing This burning god appears Merciless out there gazing A burning death draws near Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies The doom awakening foreseen light years ago Out of the molten sky, his hammer strikes down Wrath in his eyes blazing This burning god appears Merciless out there gazing A burning death draws near Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies Across the sky his torching course Such agony, blistering force The flames engulf, fires collide Burnt to a crisp, ashes remain Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies Vengeance burns within his eyes Fire in the skies

Through space and time we travel Through endless nights we soar Passing the darkened horizons Pitch-black mist Eternal blackness surrounding Starlight passing by The universe everlasting what does exist Far beyond the black field of stars Through ancient voids, see who you are Spiralling on through this dreamscape Endless starlit black skies A journey for a new sunlight glowing far We see the lair of creator Silhouettes of his domain Empire of the great master The burning star Far beyond the black field of stars Through ancient voids, see who you are Far beyond the black field of stars Through ancient voids, see who you are

Here’s a tale of lonely dreamers A tale of hungry hearts It stops to make you wonder just where you are Let me speak these words of wisdom Just say it’s nothing new There’s a sea of drowning thinkers The lonely few That the dreams they had vanished into nowhere All the borrowed time only took them somewhere Without sight Running blind The dreams you’ve cherished have vanished in thin air All your hopes have perished so why should you care Rainbows you were chasing have vanished away Now you crawl through halls of darkness The sadness in your eyes The look of no tomorrow You wore a false disguise wading in your sorrow Sighing, walking down the street of broken dreams Was it all it seemed? Look at the sight you didn’t see Caught in the grey reality The road to madness destiny Lost in time The borrowed time you wasted has you in despair The simple life you’ve tasted has always kept you there Longing for a future, but never reaching out You’re lost without a doubt

Waiting for what’s brought tomorrow Yesterday is a memory The hours passing faster day-by-day We linger on time that’s borrowed Searching the golden dream Can’t seem to find my way Feeling no sadness But feeling no gladness Fighting for my life Dreams of faith waiting Nightmares that haunt fading Finding my way through life The mystery of existence So many horizon scenes Seeking for answers Confusion burns inside In twilight feeling persistence Unknown force guiding me Will this well of dreams run dry? Feeling no sadness But feeling no gladness Fighting for my life Dreams of faith waiting Nightmares that haunt fading Finding my way through life What is the essence of time? Where it ends, do we want to know? Our destinies have all been planned But is it where we really want to go? Living on borrowed time Where the sun never shines In the sea of madness In dark waters we tread Feeling no sadness But feeling no gladness Fighting for my life Dreams of faith waiting Nightmares that haunt fading Finding my way through life Dreams will await Nightmares will fade Finding my way Finding my way Find your way Find your way Fight your way through this life!

Midnight, can you hear the wolves are howling? No light but the evil ones are prowling Pitch black and their wicked eyes are on you They attack ‘cause there’s nowhere they can find you Swirling you round, taking you down You are the chosen one You’re looking back, you left your track So now you run with the pack Run with the pack Run with the pack Run with the pack Screaming wind from the valley of the dead They’ll win the soul from you of which they led They lie, but you listen just the same You cry, but there’s no one else to blame Swirling you round, taking you down You are the chosen one You’re looking back, you left your track So now you run with the pack Run with the pack Run with the pack Run with the pack Midnight, can you hear the wolves are howling? No light but the evil ones are prowling Pitch black and their wicked eyes are on you They attack ‘cause there’s nowhere they can find you Swirling you round, taking you down You are the chosen one You’re looking back, you left your track So now you run with the pack Nowhere to hide So run with pride You run with me You won’t be free Why don’t you see it’s not a dream? No turning back Run with the pack

[originally by Accept] They're running wild They're on a down hill... ride Like a rebel they look for more Too young to die! Now you know your dreams are useless And there're lies you'll never tell... ...'cause you're so Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Star born lovers Angels in the night... on a highway! They don't look back Everybody's lost the way, yeah The little girl wants to be an actress Young boys are easy riders... ...they live so Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Stay down, time will roll on How do you feel when the night is gone Stay down, time will come 'round You are the man made for highway life ...For the highway life! City lights moving on No tomorrows, no destinations! Like a wheel turning on and on You're a man... born to run! Every world that you have seen was senseless Keep moving on there's no other way... ...'cause you're so Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild Restless! restless and wild James Rivera ‒ VocalsEric Halpern ‒ GuitarsGregg Gill ‒ Guitars, Vocals (backing)Mike LePond ‒ BassRick Ward ‒ DrumsThanks to dirchmagle for sending these lyrics.
