Fading Skies

*Verse 1:* In the twilight of our days, the sun weeps crimson tears, As cities crumble, forests burn, and hope disappears. The oceans rise, swallowing shores we once knew, And the winds carry echoes of battles fought askew. *Chorus:* Fading skies, fractured lands, a requiem unfolds, Humanity's legacy etched in ashes and cold. We danced on the precipice, blind to our plight, Now we pay the toll for our arrogance and might. *Verse 2:* The glaciers retreat, ancient icebergs sigh, While children draw their last breath under crimson skies. Leaders wield swords of greed, inked with blood, As the earth convulses, pleading for mercy from above. *Chorus:* Fading skies, fractured lands, a requiem unfolds, Humanity's legacy etched in ashes and cold. We danced on the precipice, blind to our plight, Now we pay the toll for our arrogance and might. *Bridge:* Soldiers march to dirges, flags tattered and torn, Their eyes haunted by memories of what was once sworn. The drums beat a funeral march, hearts heavy with dread, As the final battle rages, consuming the living and the dead. *Outro:* And as the stars weep, their light fading away, We cling to fragments of love, seeking solace in decay. The end draws near, but perhaps in the silence we *Outro:* And as the stars weep, their light fading away, We cling to fragments of love, seeking solace in decay. The end draws near, but perhaps in the silence we find, A chance to mend our broken world, before it's left behind.
