[Lyric] Red Dawn (Acritarch)

Red in the sky
The ground is scorched of life
The air stings the eyes and burns the skin
Click click of the rad counter
Echoes aloud
A constant delineation to respiration

There is no life in this ruined place
Only pain differentiates the endless days
Tick tick of the broken clock
Winding down
Slicing life away one second at a time

Red in the sky
Contrast the towers of ash
The only sign of civilisation
Bang bang go the distant guns
Of the unseen enemy
The grinding end is hammering closer

There can be no respite
War is life
There can be no surrender
Victory or die
Red dawn
Life is war
