The air that once was pure and clean Now burns like smoke in a toxic dream Eyes that sting, dry mouths in pain No words can form it's all in vain The water that once gave us breath Now only brings a bitter death Relentless, poisoned, full of brine Its salted acid breaks the spine The food that used to satisfy Now scarce beneath a starving sky The world has lost its sense, its soul No longer striving for a goal The prayers once passed from voice to voice Are gone erased without a choice Forgotten deep in time’s decay Like dying stars that fade away The world’s love died, was laid to rest In golden coffins, richly dressed For wealth became what people crave And left no heart, no soul to save Fools say it’s just conspiracy But now they face reality The fate that “Mastral” tried to proclaim Is here and nothing stays the same Hearts are breaking, numb inside No more feelings left to hide Bones are cracking in despair While fear infects the midnight air These are echoes after the end What’s left of colors once so bright Is just a poor and ashen blend As corpses pile in fading light Whipped by cords of copper flame The rebels bear their searing shame Forced to bow before the steel Where every nightmare becomes real Faith is gone It died in fleeting hopes Love is gone It drowned in tangled ropes All that’s left is sinners’ cries Disgrace now stains the poisoned skies You see the world fall day by day And nothing pure remains to stay These are echoes after the end What’s left of colors once so bright Is just a poor and ashen blend As corpses pile in fading light Fools say it’s just conspiracy But now they face reality The fate that Mastral tried to proclaim Is here and nothing stays the same The end has come This matrix breaks
