The Inevitable Return to Darkness - Abysmal Dawn

A meteor rips clear across our skies

Bringing forth the death of all life

This distant traveler meets its journeys end

Bringing judgement as it swiftly descends

Wandering through these clouds made of ash

Struggling to maintain control

Mental capacities under collapse

Witnessing the final days of man

For all these years we reigned supreme

Returning now to celestial debris

The food chain collapses under vast scorched skies

This climate shift condemns us to die

Foraging through remnants of mankind

Scavenge the relics of our time

Retracing the footsteps of our past

Trying to salvage what is left

Balance is stricken from our mother Earth

Violence conceived our universe

So it will end as it began

Ready now for a second chance

This loneliness brought on by isolation

Maddens you to the point of craving death

Traumatized with no apparent destination

You soon pursue the only option you see left

The pain of life exceeding fear of death

Heading for this glowing luminescence

Its gravity accretes a mass of churning souls

This single point is the origin of creation

It’s where it all began and where we shall return

Awakening as an enlightened apparition

Conscious of the truth once obscured from our view

Drifting from sordid realms of the living

Aware of the purpose you subconsciously knew

We’re all a disease

In an omnipresent being

A cancer inside of a god

Its defenses striking at us

Know that everything must serve a purpose even if that means to consume and

destroy

And you’re a part of this infection;

an agent of chaos on a quest to restore

the darkness…
