---

From the roads they all came, (left) their broken cars behind

Heading for the beaches by cover of the night

On the silent ocean, not a single boat in sight

Running from their future, they were running out of time

Women with their children and men in uniform

from some vanquished army but neither side had won

In the skies above them the sound was like a storm

What remained of choices and hopes for them were gone

– Chorus: –

Black beaches – unknown way

Final victim – no place to stay (repeat)

(Guitar solo)

He crept out from a shelter to the world that now was his

The sand was scorched and blackened as far as he could see

Called out for the others but everything was still

He was the sole survivor, an Adam with no Eve

(Chorus)
