In A Dying Land (v.5)

V5

[Lyrics by Greenwolf] [Heavy chugging guitar riff [Verse 1] Urbanization consumes the planet Towers of concrete as far as the eye can see The trees have all gone Confined to the pages of history [Verse 2] The air has gotten dirtier No photosynthesis to replenish the atmosphere The climate is unstable Extreme droughts and cities in flames [Verse 3] Wildfires consume the remaining plant life All vegetation has now been turned to ash Many species now extinct With only a few left clinging to life [Complex Guitar Solo] [Heavy Grunge instrumental break] [Melodic Guitar Solo - Slow tempo] [Verse 4 - Spacious Drums] Huddled, in a ruined building In the ruins of the city Barely surviving [Verse 5] Struggling, scavenging for supplies Food grows ever scarce Only spoilt food and flies [Verse 6] Starving, another of them dies Driven to unspeakable acts To feed the hungry cries [Pre-Chorus] Still we cling to life In a world without hope [Chorus] We saw the signs But didn't heed the warning But now it's too late This is the dawning of the end of mankind [Verse 7] Suffocating, lack of oxygen in the air Getting harder to breath each day Many succumb to despair [Verse 8] Regressing, fading memories of the past So tempting to give in when Each day may be their last [Pre-Chorus] Still we cling to life In a world without hope [Chorus] We saw the signs But didn't heed the warning But now it's too late This is the dawning of the end of mankind [Instrumental break] [Melodic Guitar Solo] [Heavy Riff - Syncopated Drums] [Slow Instrumental Interlude] [Complex Guitar Solo] [Chorus] We saw the signs But didn't heed the warning But now it's too late This is the dawning of the end of mankind [Celtic guitar solo] [galloping drums] [Bridge] We had it all within our hands But we were too blind to understand We thought we could do as we please When it was us that was the disease We marveled at our achievements in science As the world suffered for our defiance We consumed it all to expand our aims But in the end what did we gain [Short guitar solo] [Chorus] We saw the signs But didn't heed the warning But now it's too late This is the dawning of the end of mankind [Spoken Word] We're just specs of dust in a dying land [Soft melodic guitar solo] [Ending] [Celtic guitar solo] [Fades out to the sound of a wind blowing through a deserted land] [Ending]
