Never gave an answer for this endless pain Never asked for reasons till it was too late Now I feel so broken, empty and alone Requiem for the last man on earth
Leave me fall, take me to the womb Where everything begins At the end of time, your eyes of sand will bleed A weep unheard cause nothing remains now Close your eyes of sand to see, to see
I can feel your poison running through my veins Can't forget the anger, the never ending slain The swirls of hope and the life that beats within They're dust, they're gone and erased by the wind Beneath the void, in this cage of rivalry Sketches of ashes, scent of a dream
Wandering off into this crazy labyrinth called synergy Why have you done this to me? Expressionless figures arguing about millions of beings Why have you done this to me?
Leave me fall, take me to the womb Where everything begins At the end of time, your eyes of sand will bleed A weep unheard cause nothing remains now Close your eyes of sand to see, to see
Liars, you rip up my flesh, snatch my entrails And vomit inside my brain, you tatter my innocence Scream after scream, my agony stirs Enjoy the feast, eugenic minds Hey you tantalized leaders, begin to understand this outline
You're not inheriting the Earth from your parents You're borrowing it from your children

[III. Shards]
“Hello, I’m Severn Suzuki I am fighting for my future. Losing my future is not like losing an election or a few points on the stock market. I am here to speak for all generations to come. I’m only a child and I don’t have all the solutions, but I want you to realise, neither do you! You don’t know how to fix the holes in our ozone layer. You don’t know how to bring back an animal now extinct. And you can’t bring back forests that once grew where there is now desert. If you don’t know how to fix it, please stop breaking it! I’m only a child yet I know if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this earth would be! You, grown ups say you love us. I challenge you, please make your actions reflect your words. Thank you for listening” (Severn Cullis-Suzuki speech, UN Earth Summit, Brazil 1992)
Read the signs, there's no time, it's now or never Read the signs, keep alive the dream
[IV. Solitude]
No more dreams, no more smiles, no more sorrow No more cries, no more love, no more hate No more glory, no more pain, no more you No more me, no more future, no more greed No more more, no more ties, no more gods No more lies, no more weapons, no more stars No more promises, no more wars, no more Earth No more life, no more hope, no more time
The swirls of hope will dance again Someday your love will breathe again In the meantime your greed will cry Deep in this solitude
Silent, your voice will die
[V. Eyes Of Sand Reprise]
Leave me fall, take me to the womb Where everything begins At the end of time, your eyes of sand will bleed A weep unheard cause nothing remains now Close your eyes of sand to see, to see
Leave me fall, take me to the womb Where everything begins At the end of time, your eyes of sand will bleed A weep unheard cause nothing remains now It's the last goodbye You'll see...
