Listen to the wind whisper Hear the voices of cries beyond See the skies, the stirs of thunder The shattered dreams of a dying day Destruction, desecration, oh how the mighty fall Alone in our desolation, no longer we stand tall The storm is upon us, but we cannot run and hide Fate will control us, we'll be swept away with the tide of life As the night falls, consumed by silence Blissful ignorance has lost its sheen We're left to face the world's defiance The time has come when we'll be undone Destruction, desecration, oh how the mighty fall Alone in our desolation, no longer we stand tall The storm is upon us, but we cannot run and hide Fate will control us, we'll be swept away with the tide of life Time continues on, but our faults remain In the end, how far have we truly come? In the fight for freedom, are our hopes in vain? The darkest night of the brightest day A truth we're so afraid to say Destruction, desecration, oh how the mighty fall Alone in our desolation, no longer we stand tall The storm is upon us, but we cannot run and hide Fate will control us, we'll be swept away by the tide of life
