Our Final Song

I. Sanctuary Island We escape the chaos here on Sanctuary Island A song is played and music floods the night Our final haven, a refuge from the violence Now darkness falls as embers light the sky The music stops as the sun goes down And silence fills the air Faint shadows hide in the afterglow Mere moments left to share We're prepared on Sanctuary Island The tension's rising, here on Sanctuary Island Our time has come, the countdown has begun The sound of evil, roaring in the distance All hope now gone, we'll never see the dawn The music stopped as the sun went down (We see the sun going down) And silence filled the air (In this place devoid of violence) Faint shadows hid in the afterglow (They are hiding from the danger) Mere moments left to share (We're prepared here on Sanctuary Island) II. Flight of the Asteroid Behold, don't miss the show Here we go, look at that glow Bring it on! Behold, don't miss the show Here we go, look at that glow Bring it on! III. Regrets His endless days filled with regret Mistakes he can't forget A life so hard, a life unfulfilled A scarred man plagued by guilt He should have told her but words would never come Every lie a secret war, he believed he'd won He thought the truth would break her Tear her world apart, it's pointless now This precious time is all we've got She had a lie, she buried in shame A child born his in name He always knew something felt wrong The truth held in the dark She should have told him and so many times she tried Or she could have let him know instead of all the lies She thought the truth would break him Tear his world apart, it's pointless now This precious time is all we've got IV. A Really, Really Bad Day V. Anger and Acceptance The earth will burn, whatever we do Wiped out, you're all screwed I stand my ground, never give in Don't fight a fight, you can't win We're all deranged, we're insane Face up, you can't escape We'll break away, out of this place You'll die in a fiery grave Here we stand on the shoreline Underneath a blood red sky Burning bright, its reflection on the sea A deadly light yet so serene Our world seems small Now it dominates the sky Its fire consumes the night Time is still, and in some way we feel so strong As we sing our final song I won't waste time, trying to pray That's right, accept your fate I can't believe we're all gonna die Back down, say your goodbyes There's no way to stay alive Can't stop the funeral fire Blast that rock out of the sky Too late, you're all gonna fry And me, I'm out here all alone I'm free, as music fills my soul Inspiration madly flows I feel no fear Writing songs no one will hear VI. This is the End This is the end The end of humanity The end of a dream The end of a race This is the end The end of existence The end of our reign A moment in space This is the end The end of utopia The end of all pain The end of disease This is the end The end of an era The end of regret Of all we achieved This is the end (The end of prosperity) The end of a race (The end of the wars) This is the end (The end of our history) A moment in space (What was it all for?) This is the end (The end of our paradise) The end of all grief (The end of despair) This is the end (The end of emotions) Of all we achieved (The end of...) *Meteor crashing into Earth* "Oh, my god, it happened! I can't believe it actually happened! Guys, I really doubt anyone will hear this, but by strange chance, if anyone's still listening, thank you. And remember, always look on the bright side of—" VII. We'll Never Know Reprise Would we evolve, transcend and persevere? We'll never know Or would we fail, burn out and disappear? We'll never know Maybe one day we'd reach out for the stars Were we alone? We'll never know VIII. The Last Embrace "Mission complete. Let the new phase begin."
