10^2640000 (Life)

As I stand on the edge of ruin
Eyes locked on the wasteland (that beckons me)
The haze obstructs my senses
Hard to say what I hear and see
Is this a dream? It feels so real
Fear grips I cannot breathe
Am I awake, what am I seeing?
Premonitions so bold it's like a memory.

I see the pain through the river
Blood red from money lust
I hear the cries, of our dying era
Ignorance of men undone.

Cut from the ground, throw into the oceans
Throw the balance of life into turmoil
Man saw, men desired
The power of destruction.

In this dream I can't be unhappy
The virus that infests the world
Turned to ash, with the power of wisdom
The chance to amend left with the stars.

|//|No more anger
Only the need for survival
|//|No more power
The balance of life restored.

I feel alone
In this lust for revival
I feel loneliness
Until the end of our time
My dream of our planet surviving
Is but a reach so far away
As the power is restored to the beast
As the light consumes the Earth.

I see no clear future
No visions to inspire hope
No thought to longevity
A ghost of man, murdered by greed.

We drain the oil, out of the past
We pull the roots, out of the future (I'll live to see the fall of man)
An inhabitable wasteland
Left for our childrens lives.

I see the pain, bleed through the river
I hear the cries, of our dying era.

My dream of our planet surviving
Is but a reach so far away
As the power is restored to the beast
As the light consumes the Earth
|//|No more anger
Only the need for survival
|//|No more power
The balance of life restored.

As I stand on the edge of ruin
Eyes locked on the wasteland (that beckons me)
The haze obstructs my senses
Hard to say what I hear and see
Is this a dream? It feels so real
Fear grips I cannot breathe
Am I awake, what am I seeing?
Premonitions so bold it's like a memory.
