[Verse 1]
City lights flicker, heartbeat quickens,
Truth buried deeper than a graveyard's silence.
Smoke stacks rise, blockin' out the heavens,
Chokin' on the fumes of indifferent decisions.
Beneath the billboards, kids play with shadows,
Dreams sold cheap, drownin' in the shallows.
[Chorus]
World in flames, nobody blinkin',
Tides of despair, everybody sinkin'.
Spin the wheel, nobody steer,
World turns to ash, but nobody care.
[Verse 2]
Concrete jungles with jungle-less skies,
Screens feed lies, eyes hypnotized.
Rich sip champagne, poor beg for rain,
The planet’s a corpse, and we’re diggin’ the grave.
Ice caps melt, hearts stay frozen,
Compassion’s extinct, humanity’s closin’.
[Prechorus]
Tick-tick-tock, the bomb keeps countin’,
Voices scream loud, but nobody’s shoutin’.
[Chorus]
World in flames, nobody blinkin',
Tides of despair, everybody sinkin'.
Spin the wheel, nobody steer,
World turns to ash, but nobody care.
[Bridge]
Rubble where the temples stood tall,
Echoes of a past, now a ghostly hall.
Shattered mirrors, can't face reflection,
Humanity lost in its own infection.
One by one, dominoes fall,
No savior left to answer the call.
