Rumblings shaking the earth Names cried out, long lost Blame the gods, or us Who forgot to pray? Buildings collapsing “Ubi est mater?”, Children cry Who forgot to pray? Ash everywhere Miles and miles of dust This is it, Goodbye Pompeii.

Pompeii
Rumblings shaking the earth Names cried out, long lost Blame the gods, or us Who forgot to pray? Buildings collapsing “Ubi est mater?”, Children cry Who forgot to pray? Ash everywhere Miles and miles of dust This is it, Goodbye Pompeii.
