Lyrics

The Fool

In the depths of the lonely night
In a world run out of time
Adrift in emptiness
Lost among the blind
The horror takes ahold
Watching jackals rise
With a greed so mad, intense
They forge their own demise

The world is failing
What are you going to do?
The world is dying for one less fool like you

Thy art insanity
Bears an eternal wound
Exploiting flesh to live in splendor
And curse the world to doom
Devoid of empathy
with a twisted sense of pride
Bereft of sympathy
Salvation long denied

Your time is coming
Who’s going to rescue you?
Your glory’s fading
Who’s left to mourn for you?

A hundred million empty faces
stare blindly at the sky
Held motionless in abject terror
they await their turn to die
They bear the chains of their horror
with a hollow broken pride
Victims of their own creation
where greed and fear collide

The world is watching
What are you going to do
The world is dying
From endless fools like you….
You wretched fool
