FRAGILITY

from Proof of Concept by GREGORY

lyrics

אחרית הימים

Fatefully we deny the ways
Our world could change this very day

A single rock from Heaven falls
To devastate the order of all things evolved
Extinction is just a stone’s throw away
Reshape the word in a million different ways
All this has happened before
And all of this will happen again
It’s not a matter of “IF”, it’s a matter of “WHEN”

In an instant cold potential can melt away
Gone in a pleading heartbeat, our future staved
Chances are it will not stay this way
We should cherish the moment and live well this day

Death-light shines from the deepest realm
Patient as linear time with death at the helm
A microwave burster from alien skies
In a flash all life is sterilized
Or a simple super nova just light years away
Could bake our precious atmosphere clean away

The brevity of life has a sullen bouquet
The fragrance of entropy grows stale with decay
The feasts of the ages are forgotten in time
Ravenous yearnings, they sour as old wine

A cleansing flash - a coronal mass ejection
Eight minutes away with no chance of early detection
A surge to destroy all technology
Irradiate us back into a stone-age ecology
Or something as simple as the warming seas
To suffocate the whole world’s biology

Gracefully we turn away in denial of the end
Forestalled by nothing save hope
And a thin chance to be
