Humankinds Fall The flames of war are burning bright As the whole world is set to fight One by one the cities fall Until war engulfs us all It’s the beginning of the end Everyone claims just to defend While no one longer can live free And there is nowhere left to flee There is no more chance to win Poisonous gas they all breathe in Nuclear bombs fall from the sky Final solution: all must die There is no more hope for mankind No safe place on earth you can find A handful turns their sight on space Final refuge for dying race Here it stands: Leviathan Made of steel before our fall Spacecraft made by cunning hand Still it can not carry all One by one they beg to take The children that they gave birth So at least someone will make It out from the dying earth One by one. Laid to sleep inside this flying tomb Side by side Stacked so more can escape their doom Frozen down To survive the journey through space Final hope To survive for the human race See Humankinds fall In sorrows hall Cursed our names shall be Dies Our Mother Earth No chance of rebirth This is hopes final demise Solo Daniel Paulsen Figenschou Orphaned where can they now flee In universe cold and dark? Where to sail this astral sea? Where to guide of hope last spark? There is no where they can run Captain now can clearly see There’s no planet of no sun To where humankind can flee They return Back to Earth nowhere else for them to go Poisoned soil All is dead nothing here will ever grow One by one Planting seeds under protective dome One by one Survivors come, seeking a new home Solo Anna Loppacher And so life starts again on earth The wheel of life brings the rebirth As plants and animals out spread Replace the ruins of the dead Trees reach again up to the sky A new chance for mankind to try Repeat the errors, again fall Or live in harmony with all

“Chock full of ideas it is a superlative end to possibly one of the most unique albums of the year. And there are no interludes or any wasted air. It is the sort of thing that requires you to put a bit of work in first but give it a try. It is quality. Quirky, unique quality. 9/10 - Musipedia of Metal”
