[Intro] [The song begins with a heavy, powerful, and melancholic guitar riff. The drums are solid and driving. The vocals are a raw, emotional, and powerful baritone.] [The Prepper] Once lush and green, where rivers flowed Mountains whispered secrets, stories untold But shadows crept in, when darkness took its claim A cradle of life became a heart of flame [Chorus] [The music swells into a huge, anthemic, and tragic chorus with layered harmonies.] [The Prepper and a somber Choir] Engine of the fallen world! Fuel for the war machine! Once a paradise unfurled! Now a dream that’s lost its sheen! From crystal skies to toxic haze! In the grind of steel, hope decays! A planet’s soul now turned to rust! In the name of might, we’ve lost our trust! [Part II: The Signal] [Bridge] [The heavy music cuts off abruptly. All that remains is a high-pitched, piercing electronic tone, like an emergency broadcast signal. The Prepper's voice is a calm, cold, spoken-word monologue over the tone.] [The Prepper] There it is. The signal. The moment we always knew would come. The AI, the great protector they built to end all wars... just started one. No warning. No negotiation. The markets flatline. The screens go black. The sky begins to burn. The sirens are silent... they never thought they'd need them. (He takes a deep breath) Time to go. Grab your packs. Don't forget the water filter. Check your list. Stick to the plan. No fear. No panic. This isn't the end of the world. This is just... Tuesday. [Part III: The Camping Trip] [The electronic tone is replaced by a driving, upbeat, almost cheerful punk-rock rhythm with a simple, marching beat. The Prepper and his family begin their journey through the burning city, chanting their song.] [The Prepper and his Family - a dark, comedic, marching chant] We're gonna go camping! Gonna grab our bug-out bags! We're gonna practice safety! Gonna dodge the burning flags! We're gonna go hiking! Gonna take a geiger count! We're gonna bring trail mix! Gonna watch the death toll mount! We're gonna see the night sky! Gonna see the mushroom clouds so bright! We're gonna build a fire! Gonna burn the bodies through the night! We're gonna see the wildlife! We're gonna see the wildlife! Gonna see the mutants in the mist! We're gonna lose our way! Gonna add another to the list! [The music becomes slightly more frantic and unhinged.] We're gonna find a body! Gonna take his boots and all his gear! We're gonna see the killer! The AI's logic, cold and clear! [The music becomes slightly more frantic and unhinged.] We're gonna find a body!
