about

Chapter 4
Tanks roar onto the horizon, their guns gleaming in the sunlight. Opposing forces face each other down as humanity stands on the edge of self-annihilation. As the sun reaches its zenith, global warfare erupts and the last days of a dying race begin.

lyrics

On the horizon, our armies standing strong
A wall of machines reflecting in the sunlight
Extinction imminent we are witness to the end
In one last battle we are lost

A calm before the storm
In these final hours of life
The last war rages on
Consuming all those left alive

Fire consumes our defective heart
Unforgiving pain somewhere deep within
A raging storm erupts, and darkness fills the sky
Unleashing our own destruction

In the storm we sacrifice ourselves
A madness to deep to fend
So much hope for us all
Now gone forever
Our time is now at an end

On the horizon, our armies stand and fall
A wall of destruction reflecting in the sunlight
Extinction imminent only one witness in the end
In the last battle we are gone
