A flower was born in a field of pain Fed by the blood like a crimson rain Soldiers fell and stained the ground From death, new life has been found Bombs are falling from the skies Innocents with tear-stained eyes Nuclear fire’s on command The end of time is close at hand Now pain and misery paint the earth Everything lost, nothing of worth Shadows creeping through the street The cold will come with silent feet So much sorrow, fear, and grief Begging heaven for relief Time crawls slowly, drowned in cries We're drowning in our own goodbyes There were so many fatal fights The world was swallowed up by fright Death danced a tango in the night With bodies fading out of sight We're heading for a tragic end Broken hearts we cannot mend Hatred claps for our disgrace God sheds tears for the human race The legend lives, it circles tight The end will come, the final night Ghosts are whispering in the air The silent wind becomes a prayer Mercy, Lord, have mercy still Protect the ones who did Your will Rain will fall from skies above To cleanse the souls of those who love Dreams abandoned, acid rain Divine wrath will bring the flame We are children of despair Led by pride to who knows where Forgive us, God, if You still care There were so many fatal fights The world was swallowed up by fright Death danced a tango in the night With bodies fading out of sight Blood will rise against the walls Priests will fall in hallowed halls False words whispered, truth betrayed The Antichrist has come to reign
