As the wolf at our door scratched illusions for more
No regrets awoke from sleeping
Headless riders of stars, artificial and dark
Stormed the gates unlocked for keeping

And thus the trap laid in newborn science
Growing fast, superior
Would lend its prey and its maker guidance
Closing in upon no return

Veil of doom covering the mirror
Surface leaking time
Me and you pulled that final trigger
Cracking free AI

This is the end of the world
Reap the seeds of self destruction
This is the end of the world
Termination unleashed within

Every vision achieved has become but a dream
For a non-existing future
Armageddon from far with its jaws set ajar
Turn a face that once was human

Truth lies bare, knowledge and temptation
Never was divine
Tombstone made by our own creation
Read through dust AI

This is the end of the world
Reap the seeds of self-destruction
This is the end of the world
Termination unleashed within

Ye foe and friend
This is the end
We must descend
This is the end, of the world
