I looked through the window and saw bellowing fires Napalm-soaked remains of my city choke the air-victims of new empires During all conflicts of human history, death is the favored solution Lead chiefly by ruthless automatons immune to moral dissolution This vestige of a world is one born from dust and brimstone I am now merely memories made of ash, agonizing the past with bitter groans In this state of reflection, I thanked Him, for my sense of hope never retires That is, until I looked through the window and saw bellowing fires

The Last War
I looked through the window and saw bellowing fires Napalm-soaked remains of my city choke the air-victims of new empires During all conflicts of human history, death is the favored solution Lead chiefly by ruthless automatons immune to moral dissolution This vestige of a world is one born from dust and brimstone I am now merely memories made of ash, agonizing the past with bitter groans In this state of reflection, I thanked Him, for my sense of hope never retires That is, until I looked through the window and saw bellowing fires
