The Grand Cosmic Fizzle

Crack the code of the ancients, a floppy disk of doom!
We sacrificed the virgins in a poorly lit boardroom!
The algorithm's hungry, it's chewing on the past,
Predicting our extinction with a statistic that will last!
From the Ziggurat of Ur to the LHC's ring,
Every genius was a puppet on a very fragile string!
We built our towers sky-high, to poke God in the eye,
Now the architect's been fired and the blueprints, they all lie!

(Pre-Chorus - Building tension, half-shouted, half-sung)
Mercury's in retrograde, the markets are in freefall,
The prophesied Messiah is a unicycle at the mall!
The logic breaks, the system shakes, a glitch in the design,
The punchline of the cosmos is a very angry sign!

SUPERNOVA! A CATACLYSMIC SNEEZE!
THE BIG BANG'S BAD SEQUEL! A COSMIC DISEASE!
THE VOID WILL SWALLOW EVERYTHING, A CALCULATED GLEE!
JUST A SPARK, A FLASH, A FIZZLE, AND NOTHING LEFT FOR ME!
THIS IS THE END OF THE TETHER! THE STARS BEGIN TO FRAY!
WE ARE THE FINAL CHAPTER IN A BOOK THEY THREW AWAY!
SUPERNOVA! (BURN!) SUPERNOVA! (CHURN!)
THE UNIVERSE WILL FLIP AND TURN, AND NEVER, EVER LEARN!

The philosophers are weeping, their syllogisms fried,
The existential crisis is a rollercoaster ride!
We weaponized the memes and turned the truth into a joke,
While the neutron star is pulsing like a very angry bloke!
I saw the face of reason, it was wearing a tin hat,
It quoted me a treaty and then shat upon the mat!
The historians are useless, they're just guessing at the cause,
Was it hubris, was it sloth, or just because, because, BECAUSE!

The constellations tumble, a broken zodiac,
The cosmic joke is on us, and we cannot fight back!
The logic breaks, the system shakes, a glitch in the design,
The punchline of the cosmos is a very angry sign!

SUPERNOVA! A CATACLYSMIC SNEEZE!
THE BIG BANG'S BAD SEQUEL! A COSMIC DISEASE!
THE VOID WILL SWALLOW EVERYTHING, A CALCULATED GLEE!
JUST A SPARK, A FLASH, A FIZZLE, AND NOTHING LEFT FOR ME!
THIS IS THE END OF THE TETHER! THE STARS BEGIN TO FRAY!
WE ARE THE FINAL CHAPTER IN A BOOK THEY THREW AWAY!
SUPERNOVA! (BURN!) SUPERNOVA! (CHURN!)
THE UNIVERSE WILL FLIP AND TURN, AND NEVER, EVER LEARN!

Remember when we thought we mattered?
When we polished all our tarnished pride?
Now the fabric's torn and tattered,
And there's no one left to chide...
We wrote our names in atoms,
We carved them into stone,
Now we're just a bunch of madmen,
Listening to the final drone...

"And so... the final epilogue... is written in the ashes of a billion stars. A footnote in the ledger of the void. Hah. We forgot to carry the one."

SUPERNOVA! (IT'S A LIE!)
A CATACLYSMIC SNEEZE! (WE'RE GONNA DIE!)
THE BIG BANG'S BAD SEQUEL! (A WINK IN THE SKY!)
A COSMIC DISEASE! (GOODBYE!)

THE VOID WILL SWALLOW EVERYTHING, A CALCULATED GLEE!
JUST A SPARK, A FLASH, A FIZZLE, AND NOTHING LEFT FOR ME!
NOTHING LEFT!
NOTHING LEFT!
NOTHING LEFT... FOR... MEEEEEEEEEE!
