The Final

The sky is bleeding violet and chrome
We built a throne but we died alone
I hear the sirens kiss the fading tide
There's nowhere left for the righteous to hide

They promised a kingdom, a heavenly home
But the stars went dark on the microphone
The station crumbles, the altar is dust
In God we trusted… but God lost its trust

And I scream through the crack in the world
As the solar wind tears the flag unfurled
Oh, Kingdom Come, where is your crown?
The void is swallowing the whole damn town

I'm a ghost in a tin can, watching the blue turn grey
Singing requiem for the Judgment Day
My falsetto cracks the empty skies
With nothing left behind… but the lies

The oceans lifted like a crystal wall
The last believers began to fall
I saw the statues of the kings of men
Melt like wax on the edge of the end

And the ship called Savior rusted on the launch
Every prayer was a broken punch
They said "Repent" – I repented for none
Now the final chorus has already begun

And I scream through the crack in the world
As the asteroid kisses the precious pearl
Oh, Kingdom Come, you deaf machine
You promised a light… but you painted it green

I'm a fragment of bone in a cosmic flame
Singing my species' final name
My falsetto splits the dying sun
The race is lost. The race is run.

Hear me, you hollow heavens…
We were the virus and the cure
We begged for Kingdom Come to save us
But the Kingdom wasn't pure

NO ANGEL CAME TO CATCH THE STONE
WE BUILT THE THRONE. WE DIED ALONE.

On the last day… of Earth…
I sang for what it's worth…
Kingdom… come…
Kingdom… gone…
