Lyrics

The impact of meteor collisions
Sprays rock over desert sand
I've seen the subversion changing our conditions
In the wildfire that scorches the land
A region flooded by horizontal cataracts
Drowning in the debris flow
A force that despoils every human artifact
The deep and the shallow
Chains of extinction
In disruption's primordial hall
I hear the roaring legion
Of ocean waves, trumpeting the downfall
I taste the salt, the seasoning of time
And smell the smoke of lightning's clime
Chains of extinction
In disruption's primordial hall
I hear the roaring legion
Of ocean waves
A sudden cloudburst mounts the sky
Lashing the shores of hope
I feel the arctic cold
As the elemental hazard
Unfolds
Years turn to decades, centuries to an era
A worldwide crisis opening its caldera
Chains of extinction
In disruption's primordial hall
I hear the roaring legion
Of ocean waves, trumpeting the downfall
