Lyrics
Fear of tomorrow - we're waiting for the final crash
Fear of tomorrow - anticipation of an impending catastrophe or downfall
The lost illusion - there ain't no light for us to see
The lost illusion - the absence of hope or positive outlook
Our gods commandments - we once forgot and threw away
Our gods commandments - principles or values that were abandoned or ignored
Humiliating - our lifes on earth will fade away
Humiliating - a sense of degradation, with life on earth fading away
A hopeless challenge - we're on our knees
A hopeless challenge - facing a situation without a solution, being in a desperate position
Time's getting nearer
Time's getting nearer - the impending doom is approaching
We thought we were wise but we cannot survive on this earth
We thought we were wise but we cannot survive on this earth - realization of human limitations despite perceived wisdom
We challenged nature - we made it fall instead of rise
We challenged nature - human interference with the natural order, leading to negative consequences
Our mighty empire - is surely built on sinkin' ground
Our mighty empire - a powerful society or system built on unstable foundations
A hopeless challenge - we're on our knees
A hopeless challenge - reiterated sense of helplessness and desperation
Time's getting nearer
Time's getting nearer - repeated emphasis on the approaching crisis
We thought we were wise but we cannot survive on this earth
We thought we were wise but we cannot survive on this earth - repeated acknowledgment of human limitations and vulnerability
Innocent dreams turned to nightmare
Innocent dreams turned to nightmare - aspirations or hopes taking a dark and nightmarish turn
Palace of glass, turned to dust
Palace of glass, turned to dust - symbols of fragility and beauty crumbling and being destroyed
Day turned to night, don't you care
Day turned to night, don't you care - a shift from positive to negative, possibly with a plea for concern or awareness
Life turned to death, forever lost.
Life turned to death, forever lost - a stark portrayal of irreversible and tragic consequences
