[Verse 1]
The world grows dark
Dusk turns ominous
Penance for evil days
Long upon us
Unforetold dread
Is on the horizon
Warning us of impending doom

[Verse 2]
The world is become a despairing desert
The sands of time run short
The foundations of the black earth move beneath our feet
Unnameable fear lurks ever nearer
The shadows lengthen

[Bridge]
The shadows lurk

[Verse 3]
The order of the cosmos is undone
The waters of chaos rise
All that we are is soon to die
Of the black earth only ruins shall remain
A desolate remembrance
Casting long shadows
Across untold centuries
