[al:Time's Arrow]
[00:00.00]
[00:06.40] It's 2090 and the seas are boiling
[00:08.81] The sun is beaming down on poisoned land
[00:11.79] Starving people in the ruins toiling
[00:14.46] The remnants of the legacy of man
[00:17.13] Civilization burned in the fire
[00:20.05] Disintegration of a golden age
[00:22.98] Survival necessary to aspire
[00:25.65] Run through the wastelands
[00:28.31] So we can live on
[00:31.16] Promise of life in the dawn
[00:36.52] The world is madness our cities broken
[00:39.90] The Armageddon finally has come
[00:42.92] The dust has settled on dreams of old
[00:45.33] Refugees are what we have become
[00:48.11] Children are starving
[00:49.63] As they search for longing
[00:51.19] Knowing nothing of the world that's gone
[00:53.85] They do not cry for simple sad belongings
[00:56.65] Reality drifting through madness and pain
[01:02.33] Mankind will not be restrained
[01:07.74] There's still a light to follow
[01:11.27] Don't drown yourself in pain
[01:14.01] Though hope is desecrated
[01:16.49] We've not survived this long in vain
[01:19.10] Walk on do not stumble
[01:22.33] There must be a promised land
[01:25.38] Though all you know has crumbled
[01:27.85] We are the last hope of man
[01:34.18] The snow is falling
[01:35.05] And we don't have shelter
[01:36.85] Our clothing clinging to us paper thin
[01:39.53] A fire rages in our hearts and voices
[01:42.26] Nothing to shield the peril that we're in
[01:44.92] The road is endless the forest falling
[01:48.10] There's nothing left to grow it all will burn
[01:50.71] Death is tempting you hear her calling
[01:53.75] Don't follow dreams
[01:55.43] That are tempting and true
[01:59.15] Death is just calling to you
[02:04.01] There's still a light to follow
[02:08.22] Don't drown yourself in pain
[02:10.97] Though hope is desecrated
[02:13.49] We've not survived this long in vain
[02:16.67] Walk on do not stumble
[02:19.36] There must be a promised land
[02:22.33] Though all you know has crumbled
[02:24.88] We are the last hope of man
[02:33.14]
[03:38.20] Memories fading like nightmares in time
[03:43.70] Remnants of man
[03:45.92] And the earth in their prime
[03:52.26]
[04:01.32] Grasping at shadows before they can run
[04:06.47] Pray for the warmth of the sun
[04:13.12]
[05:34.20] The pain of hunger and the fear of torment
[05:36.85] It's driven men and women to go mad
[05:39.52] I will not join them or their savage nightmare
[05:42.32] Hope will not die if there's fire inside
[05:47.72] Humanity won't be denied
[05:53.20] There's still a light to follow
[05:56.60] Don't drown yourself in pain
[05:59.46] Though hope is desecrated
[06:02.00] We've not survived this long in vain
[06:05.11] Walk on do not stumble
[06:07.97] There must be a promised land
[06:10.94] Though all you know has crumbled
[06:13.24] We are the last hope of man
[06:22.44]
