What Will Come of it All

Mouth by mouth, false news spreads to fast.
Word by word, crazed humans listen.
Churches and schools and homes are gone.
All institutions of this world
Fade rapidly to rumor mills.

What will come of it all,
When this world goes under?
Who’ll be willing to know
What these lies will cast down?

Inch by inch, the wars escalate.
Flag by flag, disease takes us down.
Friends and treaties and peace are gone.
All futures for this Hell-bound world
Fade rapidly to bleak dismay.

What will come of it all,
When this world goes under?
Who’s willing to help us
When no help will be found?

Brick by brick, city walls crumble.
One by one, stained glass windows break.
Reds and blues and yellows are gone.
All colors of this dreary world
Fade rapidly to black and grey.

What will come of it all,
When this world goes under?
Who’s willing to catch us
When we fall to the ground?

Life by life, the end is approaching.
Soul by soul, Old Death steals us all.
Love and hope and joy are all gone.
All feelings of this lonely world
Fade rapidly to hate and fear.

What will come of it all,
When this world goes under?
Who’ll be willing to give
When our love finds some bound?
