All Life Ends Lyrics

All Life Ends lyrics

My life fades, my visions dim

all that remains are memories

I remember a time of chaos

time of war

as men began to feed on man

only the scavengers survived

gone now, swept away

for reasons long forgotten

touched of a blase

which engulfed them all

a firestorm of fear

the answer is written in their bones

all life ends

I remember an old man

griping my wrist, he was dying

"imagine", he said

"looking into the eyes of a nova,

the bursting flames, the roar of it's energy

frintly echoing down the corridors of time,

whispering: all life ends

"death, he said "is like a bolt of lightning,

Light cast upon every secret,

just for a moment, till the last spark of life fades

and all is dark..."

then he breathed out his last breath into my ear

his gaze already way out among the stars...

among the ruins of the past

I shelter from the storm

my mind is numb from the lonliness

and the rain that never stops

this wasteland, once a beautiful place

where trees and flowers grew

where deer, and squirells had their home

now rotting are their bones

Where raging waters grind the earth

I go to end my days

the sea that witnessed mankinds birth

shall watch us die again

black and deep,

empty of life

as in the heaven so below

the sun has now forever set

and bids our time to go

I am tired

and I fear not

the cold that now descends

as light grows dim, I bid farewell

all life ends

I am leaving now, my body stiff

just watching for a while

that rigid shell, so small and weak

a corpse on a broken cliff

the stars are calling me now

with distant, speechless voices

and caught by a wind I drift away

and nothing calls me to stay...

I am ridint the wind that has no name,

the fire that burns without a flame

caught by the spell on which all depends,

all life ends

the answer is written in my bones,

all life ends
