In the shadowed recesses of this decaying world I dwell
Silent witness to the ballet of atoms as they creep toward hell
A nucleus breaks (breaks breaks)
A world of mistakes (mistakes-mistakes)
The foundation shakes (shakes-shakes)
Cruel hand of death takes (takes-takes)
TAKES!!!
In the heart of atoms a chain reaction unfolds
This dark revelation slowly our future it molds
As particles collide and our destiny's are sealed
Like thief in the night its deadly chains are revealed (revealed-revealed)
Decay is a shadow relentless and cold
In the half-life of dreams our stories are told
Through fissures of time we strive so hard to be bold
In a world where truth is a shackle so cold
Try as we might the end already foretold
The tales that we weave are just ashes from gold (gold-gold)
Gold-Gold(Gold-Gold)
GOLD!!!!!
Dynasties built on greed on fractured shoulders of poor
Dying species genocides and climate changes they ignore
In my marrow the Geiger clicks as isotopes prevail
Grand leaps of technology paint the futures grim tale
My body once whole now a casualty fractured and torn
The fall of man a shattered dream broken mirrors now worn (worn-worn)
WORN!!!!!
Decay is a shadow relentless and cold
In the half-life of dreams our stories are told
Through fissures of time we strive so hard to be bold
In a world where truth is a shackle so cold
Try as we might the end already foretold
The tales that we weave are just ashes from gold (gold-gold)
GOLD!!!!!
This never-ending cycle leaves the world in disarray
We are merely observers offspring of this decay
Tick-tock goes the clock as time passes we fade
Come judgement day the light within our souls weighed
Before that day comes I pray you give up the charade (charade-charade)
CHARADE!!!!!
A nucleus breaks (breaks-breaks)
A world of mistakes (mistakes-mistakes)
The foundation shakes (shakes-shakes)
Hand of death takes (takes-takes)
TAKES!!!
Decay is a shadow relentless and cold
In the half-life of dreams our stories are told
Through fissures of time we strive so hard to be bold
In a world where truth is a shackle so cold
Try as we might the end already foretold
The tales that we weave are just ashes from gold (gold-gold)
GOLD!!!!!
The tree of life with deep roots twists in pain against the sway
Of radioactive ballets endless linear decay
Decay-decay (decay-decay)
DECAY!!!!!
