What will you tell your children when they ask you "what went wrong" How can you paint a picture of a paradise lost To eyes that know only a wasteland How will you justify watching the world die The clock is ticking, can't you feel our days are numbered Head first into disaster from which there will be no return With narrow minds we decimate our one true home Cast into oblivion, judgment is calling Behold the pale horse This is the funeral of the Earth Behold the pale horse This is the funeral The blind eye can no longer be cast The clock is ticking, there is no second chance The blind eye can no longer be cast There will be no future, if we can't learn from our mistakes The clock is ticking, there is no second chance There will be no future, if we can't learn A forced extinction closes out the age of apathy The final act, sacrifice the world's ecology The death of beauty, the death of hope Cast before the throne of avarice, judgment is calling Behold the pale horse This is the funeral of the Earth Behold the pale horse This is the funeral The blind eye can no longer be cast There will be no future, if we can't learn from our mistakes The clock is ticking, there is no second chance There will be no future, if we can't learn I can't watch it burn Behold the pale horse
