While we are 
Held down,
Consumed by 
Life's struggles,
By the time day breaks,
All will be gone,
We never saw it coming,
All life is lost 
And tonight the cities burning 
To the ground,
With all hopes 
And all dreams and all mans ever worked for 
Is nothing but a memory,

And as my final moments counted down,
I hung my head low,
And was the last life to be found,
And I stop to think, 
I've lived a life of fear
It's the ending times and there's no life to be found 
here
Yeah!
It's the countdown to destruction,
It's the countdown to the end
