Fear-Modern-Man - The Storm Lyrics

We knew the days approached, but no one prepared
Nightfall used to follow day, now it consumes our existence
Ever greedy for more...
The clouds turned black and descended upon the earth
Never rising, never fading
We are the makers, the destroyers, the ones who beg to know
But to know is to devour

Shrapnel peppers the walls, like it was the main course
In the vilest of meals and soon we too will dine on the dead

The rats which used to gnaw at our ankles are now a memory
Followed by a rumble from our empty bellies
They pushed forth, further than we had ever expected
Our delusions of safety gone, devoured
Bodies line the streets, rotting flesh reeks
The sun has no place over this hell
The sun could only magnify this putrid smell
We huddled in our basements like weak followers
Waiting to be told that it was okay to come out now
Never okay, never ending, never free, fight we must
For the war rages on! The war rages on!
