Remembering the days when the skies were red as blood
Yet the smiles on the faces of the wicked, the misunderstood
A crater where we stand, with the ashes in the wind
Broken homes and rubbled roads lead us to the end
We terminate our past
We terminate our goals
We stand to fight
Only to survive the cold
We exterminate our fears
We exterminate our cries
We stand united
Push forward on the dead end road
The ocean that was once alive
Is now a baron waste
Steaming from the boil as the rotting corpses flood the gates
Reflections of horizons lost
Peace on earth a dream
What once was past the point of great, we set it up to break
As the light fades from the eyes we are blinded to the need
To surrender all that we hold dear, and renew a life from fears
The setting sun is dragging shadows on the land
And filling in with darkness
Our resolve we will disband
We terminate our past
We terminate our goals
We stand to fight
Only to survive the cold
We exterminate our fears
We exterminate our cries
We stand united
Push forward on the dead end road
You crawl away
You hide away
But i won't surrender till I’m six feet underground
The clawing at the battle till there's nothing left around me
I know the end is near but i will not give up
I’ll stay alive until my body tells me that I’ve had enough
There comes a point in time where we must give it all
The broken earth around my feet
Demands that I feed the starving worms
And I refuse to slay myself by following the herd
The final sleep is tempting but
My inner voice will be heard
Craving of the silence as my body wants to lie
Seizing of my breath as the cold pierces through my mind
Finality of existence a world that's at its end
I’m fighting to keep my consciousness aware
But I know I'm at my end
I know I gave it my all
And I know that I have tried
But this must be my end
Sometimes it's best to know when to give in
Why do I try
Sometimes it's best to know when to give in
