Lyrics of Fool's paradise

(5:48)

What's become of the world - the colors unfurl revealing a blackened haze conditioned to fear the voice that we hear - calling an end of days millions of souls under control like pawns to a king, led by a string, to the final hour
Oh - empire of the sea, lords of technology that fell into the void oh shall it be as it was before - a tragedy on every shore?
Is this the end of all we know - innocence lost so long ago woven in dreams - the darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny decades of greed, plague, famine and war - we can't go on like this anymore living like fools - chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Death by design, altering birth - trends of the modern age the wisdom of life erased from the earth - in a reckless rampage
Oh - empire of the sea, lords of technology that fell into the void oh shall it be as it was before - a tragedy on every shore?
Is this the end of all we know - innocence lost so long ago woven in dreams - the darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny decades of greed, plague, famine and war - we can't go on like this anymore living like fools - chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Dies irae, dies illa, solvet saeclum in favilla
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war - we can't go on like this anymore living like fools - chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Is this the end of all we know - innocence lost so long ago woven in dreams - the darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny decades of greed, plague, famine and war - we can't go on like this anymore lost in the night - fading from sight - is this the final setting sun?
