Lyrics
Obscured by the sun
Apocalyptic Clash
Cities fall in ruin
Why must we die?
Obliteration of mankind
Under a pale grey sky we shall arise
I did nothing saw nothing
Terrorist confrontation
Waiting for the end
Wartime conspiracy
I see the world old
I see the world dead
Victims of war
eeking some salvation
Last wish
Fatality
I've no land
I'm from nowhere
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
<not sure about this part, lost the lyric sheet, help me out
alright? >
Face the enemy
Manic thoughts
Religious Intervention
Problems remain
Obliteration of mankind
Under a pale grey sky we shall arise
