Not For Naught - Escape Pod Lyrics

We're not getting a life boat
No auspicious escape pod
There's no secret tunnel
No machinery sent from God

Incommunicado
No one will answer the call
Like in a cask of amontillado
An inconceivable wall

The world is nothing but shadows
Of the future, the present, and past
We stare at a blank page of paper
Empty and cold and vast

We get no guardian angels
No wizards, dwarves, or elves
No emergency responders
We'll have to rely on ourselves

Keep track of all of our rations
Don't forget to tend that fire
If we end up in darkness
Our lot will be much more dire

We used to have our differences
Red and blue and green
But none of that really matters now
As we have plainly seen

There's no way out of here
