The Downfall of Humanity: the Downfall Lyrics

Our charge is abandoned, wasted
The ashes are raining from the sky
There is no forgiveness for what we've done

The task that was laid upon us
We relinquished without a second thought
And now we must face what we have wrought

Destruction and ruin, it caused us to fall
We destroyed what we had to live for
Redemption and peace are lost to us now
We shattered the dream and broke our word

Running blind into chaos
Wasting time, trusting others to do what was right
And we end up falling!

Taking pride in our own greed
Wanting more, letting everything crumble to dust,
Now the world is dying!

What if we had heard the warnings that were given in the beginning?
What if we had stopped, remembered everything that we had promised?

Did we wake too late to heed the call that brought us to our senses?
Could we have been saved, reversed the damage that we have inflicted?

Our world lies in ruins, shattered
And we are the only ones to blame
It is our pain, our grief, our shame

Destruction and ruin, it caused us to fall
We destroyed what we had to live for
Redemption and peace are lost to us now
We shattered the dream and broke our words
