A grey and sunless sky above lies heavy on the earth fire storms acid rain celebrating birth fall on down to corpses rotting in the streets baste in their own blood upon the pavement from the heat Maggots crawl from festering sores soon will turn to flies spread disease across the land to the lucky who've survived minds asleep are restless with reminiscent desire sinners writhe in pain and fright baptism by fire Chorus Cities once great of stone and steel now lie black and burning drifting far and fast away a dying world stops turning a shroud of darkness steals the earth its solar womb hopelessly I've given up prepared to meet my doom Chorus
