Lyrics
A silence so deafening as the stillness surrounds us
A rush of fear is surging through our veins
A shadow so menacing darkens our horizon
What have we done? Is this the end?
When death descends?
Don't say I didn't warn you!
You'll recall my words the day that the world breaks down
Don't claim you didn't see it
Are you prepared to die the day that the world breaks down?
I can't believe we're in danger
I can't believe that we've let it come this far
We must prepare for the changes
We must prepare for the day that the world breaks down
Don't expect we will survive this
There'll be no way back the day that the world breaks down
Don't assume it's all a nightmare
We won't stand a chance the day that the world breaks down!
I can't believe this is happening
I can't believe we are headed for a fall
We must prepare for the blackening
We must prepare for the day that the world breaks down
I can feel it in my heart!
I can see it in the stars!
Behold: It's all been foretold
The future unfolds the day that the world breaks down
I always knew this would happen
Not many believed in my cause
I'm sure they will all turn to me now
I'm sure I'm the only one who can save us (Star Blade!)
From this fate
I always knew they would need me
Not many showed faith in my plans
I'm sure they will all listen to me now
I'm sure that I'm the only one who can save us (Star Blade!)
From this fate
Yes, I believe you are the answer
Yes, I agree you are the key
Your future lies in the heavens!
Our future life is beyond the stars (Star Blade!)
We will save them!
(Star Blade!)
We will save them
(Star Blade!)
From this fate!
Zero, one, zero, one
Zero, zero, zero, one, one
Zero, zero, one, zero
Zero, one, one, zero, one, zero, one
Zero, one, one, one
Zero, zero, one, zero
(Zero, one, one, one)
One, zero, one, zero, zero
Zero, one, zero, one, zero, one, zero, one
Zero, zero, one, zero
Zero, one, zero, zero, zero
Zero, zero, one, one, zero, zero, zero
(One)
I must've been blind
I mean, it should've been obvious!
Straight out of my mind to rely on a cold machine
The signs were strong, I know I was wrong
I know they will hate me now
Ooh, but I will come clean and destroy this cold machine
This is not over, not as long as we're alive
If we join our forces, we will make it
This is not over; as a race we must survive!
And in the end we will cross this bridge together
We're losing this fight
And yes, we got ourselves to blame
I guess it seems right in the mind of a cold machine
I'll fix every flaw, I'll break every law
I'll tear up the rulebook if that's what it takes
You will see
I will crush this cold machine!
This is not over
I am sure we'll find a way out of this desperate situation
This is not over even if it all seems hopeless
For in the end we'll cross this bridge together!
I can feel it in the air– the signs are everywhere
Communications grind to a halt
Traffic has stopped, defenceless and frail
Planes crashing down
We're getting closer to the day the world breaks down
