Lyrics
i was sittin in a concrete prision for years
eatin canned food just to stay alive
it happened 20 years ago, the day the world died
bombs dropped everybody just ran for they lives
but i think i was the only one to survive
i been tunin to radio stations none of em on
last time they was on the air
half the world was gone
from the nuclear blast and radiation
contamination, starvation millions dead
they said, russia struck first then we got the go ahead
to attack them and try to get a little revenge
some revenge man, lookin back all these years
trapped in here all my life, with nothin but fear
i dont know what to do, afraid to look outside
afraid to look apocalypse right in the eyes
afraid that ima never see the blue sky again
its the end
into the light i walk with a destiny
to rebuild the world with the best in me
life as we know it died and im filled with fear
i cant even look at the world, without shedding a tear(2x)
Its the end
August 26th i carved in the shelters side
the day our founding fathers truly died
day a million lives were the cost of pride
i cant live in this prison i gotta get outside
so i opened the door, to a new world
it was 3 pm, but time didnt exist
everything mankind made became this;
rubble, chaos, destruction and death
i saw my backyard was covered with frozen ash
with every 10 feet was a patch of dead grass
plants were dying, they hadnt seen the sky in
20 years...the sun was now so far away from here
religion was gone, along with mankinds ethics
the codes of the ages was reduced to repentance
and the weight of the world was on my shoulders
i see shadows on the wall of my fallen brothers
every single person on this earth died in vain
i got outta my prison and all i feel is pain
this day will go down in history
as the day the world gave birth from its defeat
into the light i walk with a destiny
to rebuild the world with the best in me
life as we know it died and im filled with fear
i cant even look at the world, without shedding a tear(2x)
Its the end..
i walked down the bombed out cobblestone roads
the metaphor shows my life just as i know
cuz i think its takin me right towards the unknown
im lonely now because im all alone
and not a single soul is walking the planet
except me, im trapped in realitys hell
everywhere i look, all these buildings fell
flashbacks haunt my mind, from that horrible day
the sound of screams, children crying, as their parents prayed
i hear the wind blow as if the souls are calling
to put a stop to the baal that has taken our glory
across, was a dead meadow covered in brown leaves
somthin shocked me, i saw an apple tree
like it was just grown right outta healthy land
i walked towards it, approachin with sweaty hands
i saw a woman kneeling on the ground dressed in rags
she was crying all alone, just like me
i walked up to her, and she looked at me
outta instinct she jumped right into my arms
suddenly, the dark clouds opened up
the sun hit my face for the first time in years
i never felt so happy, just to be here
with my companion, and the warmth of god
his love beamed down from the skies above
and it shined heavenly on the apple tree
i said "im adam"
she softly said "my names eve"
