Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity
[Verse 2]
Death of Mother Earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution's end
Never will it mend
[PreChorus]
Never
[Chorus]
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color our world blackened
[Verse 3]
Blistering of earth
Terminate its worth
Deadly nicotine
Kills what might have been
[Verse 4]
Callous frigid chill
Nothing left to kill
Never seen before
Breathing nevermore
[PreChorus]
Never
[Chorus]
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Color our world blackened
[Bridge]
Blackened
[Verse 5]
Opposition... contradiction... premonition... compromise (Opposition... contradiction... premonition...)
Agitation... violation... mutilation... planet dies (Agitation... violation... mutilation...)
[Verse 6]
Darkest color
Blistered earth
True death of life
[Verse 7]
(Termination... termination... expiration... cancellation...) Termination... expiration... cancellation... human race
(Expectation... liberation... population...) Expectation... liberation... population... lay to waste
[Verse 8]
See our mother
Put to death
See our mother die
[Verse 9]
Smoldering decay
Take her breath away
Millions of our years
In minutes disappears
[Verse 10]
Darkening in vain
Decadence remains
All is said and done
Never is the sun
[PreChorus]
Never
[Chorus]
Fire
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Blackened is the end
To begin whipping dance of the dead
Fire
Is the outcome of hypocrisy
Darkest potency
In the exit of humanity
Color our world blackened
[Outro]
Blackened
