Black Earth

Across the lake of fire
Through the deserts of decay
The flames are burning higher
In this land of death you’re easy prey
Black Earth
Save — Our — Souls
Looking back in anger
At the twentieth century
Tormented we surrender
In artificial serenity
Twisted, torn and burnt
Violation of the crust
Man got what man deserved
Turned the future into dust
A millinery failure
The dark age has returned
Waiting for a miracle
To save the common herd
«In a century of darkness
The horror spreads within —
As our planet stops to turn
All hope is lost for man»
