The Final Fall

So there comes a time occasionally
When you open eyes and have to see
A hellish place that once was right
A twisted land where all must fight

A chain of events set into place
To decide the fate of the human race
So as our past will disappear
Our future lays a track down here

Eternal flames light up the sky
As one by one we come to die
An end that never quite began
But finishes the life of every man

Blood stained arms reach out at me
As I reach the point of my destiny
To stand up tall and to be heard
For all to drink my every word

A perfect scene we have to draw
To hide the deaths of many more
A light to counteract the dark
A good to hide the embellished mark

But nothing stops the evil stare
That shadows everyone down there
So again our light begins to fade
Covered in an eerie shade

So as the flames burn to the ground
Will the words of men ever be found?
Will the ashes of us come up once more?
To fight again in another war
