People who have no hopes are easy to control |
|
With nothing and uncertainty |
|
Rumors of wars with monsoons and tornadoes |
|
Will keep fear over their eyes and locks on their feet |
|
If there were something then at least that would be something |
|
But there's not and it buries cracks of drought |
|
Tearing apart empires and homes and the dreams of men |
|
Sealing the entrance and every way out |
|
There is hope but no heart can touch it |
|
Unless it's traded wants, for others needs |
|
It is emptiness that is left and destroying the world |
|
Priceless possessions held so tight that it bleeds |
|
The end is near, they won't believe it |
|
Until a waking nightmare they can see it |
|
And they'll know it has begun |
|
When zero blocks out the sun |
|
Blinded by the fact that they can see nothing |
|
One by one they scream silently as they run |
|
Save up your hopes friends |
|
It'll start like hot rain searing through the leaves |
|
And boil the sea turning every grass yellow |
|
It comes with no warning and wants no reprieve |
|
As it begins with dark clouds and silence |
|
The oceans will be covered in water |
|
And the mountains turned in to sand |
|
The trees will be scattered like stars in the night |
|
And beneath it all will be buried the land |
|
The air will turn sour and make mothers hate their daughters |
|
And fathers will take the blade to their sons |
|
Earthquakes will level houses |
|
Hurricanes will take the cattle |
|
Birds of prey will lay claim to the rest |
|
The crops will be devoured by locusts and lightning |
|
And when nothing is left, the thunder will rest |
|
The mountains in the sea will crack at their bases |
|
And send the earth far away from its sun |
|
They'll fall off the planet and leave the world weightless |
|
And everything will freeze together as one |
|
And for years that measure one million times seven |
|
Times eleven million by seventy seven |
|
It'll rocket into nothing, rock ice spinning into nothing |
|
Until fire smashes it into glass |
|
And sends a rain of boiling vapor |
|
Like arrows ripping into paper |
|
On to our heads, lava and poison ash |
|
And it begins. save up your hopes friends |
|
And send them to the corners of your end |
|
There is something coming, and everything matters |
|
Guard your heart, and watch the wind |
|
There is something coming, and everything matters |
|
Guard your heart, and watch the wind |
|
There is something coming. |
|
I said Save up your hopes friends, Save up your hopes friends |
|
Save up your hopes friends, And send them to the corners of your end |
|
There is something coming, and everything matters |
|
Guard your heart, and watch the wind |
