Blue turns to grey then to black as the storm waits to break on the anxious earth<br />
A violent upheaval will soon come to pass - The Enemy grins at destruction<br />
The ominous sky is alive with heat, bright as the night of the storm<br />
Fierce winds, blinding downpour, lightning tears through the dark veil of clouds<br />
And so the war begins, a struggle in the sky<br />
Gone is the light from sun, star and moon<br />
Like the armies of Mordor in igneous wrath<br />
Thunder resounds through this premature night<br />
<br />
As the crash of a thousand pantheons<br />
Great is the release of this supernova<br />
Ravaging the land with stones of ice<br />
Another cycle - the earth is transformed<br />
<br />
Marching free of my parched grave<br />
Awakened to a form beyond time<br />
Tears from above blessing black soil<br />
Another cycle - the earth is reborn<br />
<br />
The trees thrash wildly in the forest's pit<br />
Branches get tangled and trunks torn apart<br />
Sand turns to mud as it's pelted by rain<br />
The wind howls in furious agony<br />
<br />
The wise take refuge and wait for the dawn<br />
Deep in their haven of home and hearth<br />
Ride strong all who were caught unprepared<br />
After the battle only the mighty remain
