End of Mankind

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Cities fold like paper

The skyline bows its burning head

Nothing answers the sirens now

I counted the hours as they bled

Ash on my tongue and teeth

We built this grave with our own hands

Pre-Chorus

No trumpet no warning

No hand to pull us back

The ground just opened wide

And swallowed every track

Chorus

This is the end of mankind

The final page we signed

This is the end of mankind

Every spark left behind

Post-Chorus

Gone gone gone

Gone gone gone

Verse 2

I held a stranger's palm

Felt the pulse go thin and flat

Smoke climbed the hospital walls

No god came down to look at that

We whispered names into the dark

Then the dark took those too

Pre-Chorus

No mercy no sunrise

No cure for what we made

The final voice went quiet

And quiet would not fade

Chorus

This is the end of mankind

The final page we signed

This is the end of mankind

Every spark left behind

Post-Chorus

Gone gone gone

Gone gone gone

Breakdown

Bleed

Breathe

Beg

Cease

We were the storm

We were the flame

We were the last thing

We could not name

Guitar Solo

Bridge

Shattered and scattered

Silent and still

Fractured and feral

Frozen until

Chorus

This is the end of mankind

The final page we signed

This is the end of mankind

Nothing left to rewind

Post-Chorus

Gone gone gone

Gone gone gone

Gone
