The Ordeal Lyrics


Struggling through the ashes

In the heritage of man

The legacy of a million years

Ruined in just a day

A caustic rain is falling

And it's piercing through my skin

Just like sulphur on a piece of clay

God it burns...

As we're marching out of time

A cold rain is falling

We're the last to walk the line

The ultimate breed

The cities lies abandoned

A wind sweeps the ground

Just the howling of the sirens in the dark

In silence we are leaving

Will we ever return?

A final glance at mother earth

Deserted and frozen

As we're marching out of time

A cold rain is falling

We're the last to walk the line

The ultimate breed

"And with the rain came the thunder

A giant flood washed us all away

And now we're all stranded

Upon the shore of extinction we stand

I guess there's an ending after all"

Struggling through the ashes

In the heritage of man

The legacy of a million years

Ruined in just a day

In silence we are leaving

Will we ever return?

A final glance at mother earth

Deserted and frozen

As we're marching out of time

A cold rain is falling

We're the last to walk the line

The ultimate breed
