Cold as steel the darkness waits its hour will come
A cry of fear from our children worshipping the sun
Mother natures' black revenge on those who wasted her life
War babies in the garden of Eden
Shall turn our ashes to ice

Sunrise has gone, freezing up the fires
Sunrise has gone, numbing our desires

Around the world the people stop
With terror stricken eyes
A shadow cast upon them all
To crush them like a fly
In the icy rain and whiplashed seas
There's nowhere left to run
The hammer blows of winter fall like a hurricane

Sunrise has gone, freezing up the fires
Sunrise has gone, numbing our desires

Around the world the nations wait
For some wise word from their leading light
You know it's not only madmen who listen to fools
Is this the end, the millions cried
Clutching their riches as they died
Those who survive must weather the storm

Gone are the days when man looked down
They've taken away his sacred crown
To be set free, it took so long
It's not journey's end, it's just begun
