Rainfall Outskirts

from Will of the Earth by Ruinous Time Blade

/

lyrics

Hurry
This way
Our district collapsing

But so it is

The Earth, once home to the sea and trees,
Unrecognizable blackened death heap
Fear of the end drove us this far
Our home ignited, abandoned to the stars
You can’t say what was yours to waste
Desperate for water through the heartache
We stay here for now but it’s our grave
The war lost, we will dehydrate.

Migrate to the rainfall in the outskirts
Once there the end foreseen in debris falls slowly toward what’s left of the Earth...

Why did we make it to the end?
Now it’s over
No glimpse No sliver
Of what a life could have been.

Fuck this ending

We’ll die, not in ice, but in war
Steal back the breath from those who saw our future torn
Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em we choose to fight
None will say our last days weren’t bright
We spark up, burn it all today
The distant meteors scream down toward what's left of cities
This life was hell, a hell they’ll taste
One for the road, our wrath will not waste.

From below, No
Don’t let go
Why?

It’s just me...

Let the rain come

End us, and wipe the slate clean
Our species, entropy incarnate
The last of us witness the display
What’s left of our progress, in the moment of its decay
This is what happens when evil wins
Too soon, the window of life closes again.
