Apocalypticism

A soldier comes home from the war

To four walls

And nothing

Children search for their parents

Forever

But they keep on looking

A father returns home from work

And murders his family

A priest looses his faith in God

His formative years steered in tragedy

Politicians become impostors

Comforting words of the backwoodsmen

A troubled drifter with a guilty past

A cabin of corpses by an old dirt track



This is the dawn of the apocalypse

Open your heart to the apocalypse

I want to watch you burn in the apocalypse

I'll make you learn for the apocalypse



An elderly couple sit by the fire

With gunshot wounds to the skull

A talk show host is found face down

In a public swimming pool

A corrupt official abuses his position

An old vagrant in the park

Mutilated beyond recognition

International leaders break down on live TV

The suicide of an old school master

Miserable and lonely



This is the dawn of the apocalypse

Open your heart to the apocalypse

I want to watch you burn in the apocalypse

I'll make you learn for the apocalypse
