The Embers Of Man

Enemies are pre-empting a nuclear strike
Now we face the day that we have feared
High alert, the military prepares for war
Silos open, now our fate appears
Indications - they will launch at any moment
We are left with only this one choice.
It's time to incinerate
Every human- subject to this morbid day
Orders to obliterate
Keys activate - codes to forge our final fate
There's no time to change our minds
No rescinding, no one has a place to hide.
We've chosen to end our lives
Prompting global genocide

We will end it all, this atomic pall
Ignoring the call
There's no peaceful resolution
Man will end it all, warheads now shall fall
Boiling fires roar, over earth the warheads fall

We cannot survive this holocaust
Foreseen through our time,
Though we've been in denial
Never seen again, our existence
Our end is at hand, we will be concluded.

All out warfare, only defense, kill the whole world
You've no time to prepare for death
This horrible decision has come from our leaders
Orders to annihilate our enemies
We have no alternative
But manually assured destruction
They launch their whole arsenal today
Now our missiles rise and shine
The burning arrows crossing paths
No one will survive this horrid day...

Disbelief, this cannot be
Our existence, never will we live to see
There is no tomorrow
We're consumed by nuclear fires
Raining down upon our heads
In mere minutes, world filled with blackened dead
Screaming for a place to flee
No escaping, solar fires being fed

WE CAN NOT SURVIVE THIS HOLOCAUST
FORESEEN THROUGH OUR TIME,
THOUGH WE'VE BEEN IN DENIAL
NEVER SEEN AGAIN -- OUR EXISTENCE

THE EMBERS OF MAN SHALL GLOW FOREVER...
