Time Traveler's Lament

THE STORY BEHIND THE SONG

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Through the veil of time I stride
To witness mankind's last sunrise
Crumbling towers touch the sky
As nature claims what we denied

Chorus:
The final dawn breaks crimson red
Through toxic clouds and skies of lead
I stand alone, the last to see
What fate had always meant to be

Verse 2:
In bunkers deep beneath the ground
The last of humankind is found
Digital ghosts in silver trains
Upload their souls to escape the pain

(Chorus repeats)

Bridge:
Evolution's final spin
Something ends, something begins
Not quite human, not quite free
Rising from our ashes, see

Verse 3:
Ancient weapons stir from sleep
As oceans boil and mountains weep
I've seen it all, through time's dark glass
The future, present, and the past

Final Chorus:
The final dawn breaks crimson red
Through toxic clouds and skies of lead
We had our time, now let it be
The end of all humanity

Outro:
(Whispered)
Time's circle complete at last
Future merged into the past
Nothing left but memory
Of all that we were meant to be
