This is the last word
In eternal silence
This is the last light
In endless dusk
Shadows forecast a darker tomorrow
Walls are closing in
It's hard to breathe today
Our nights are freezing
Still the world turns
And still the world - turns
You can't kill
The last rose - in dust
But the last rose will never be broken
Will never be forgotten
The final hope won't fail - won't fail
The final hope won't die - won't die
You can't kill the last rose - in dust
You can't kill the last rose - in dust
But the last rose will never be broken
Will never be forgotten
The final hope won't die
Apathetic figures
Through walls of steel
And their ethic burying the flowers
The seeds once sawn
But we won't
Cease spreading the thoughts
Of which the last rose - will grow
