Lyrics
So now we talk about destruction,
Discussing the theme of destruction
A human race that's left to die
Addressing the impending demise of the human race
Nobody ever will believe it
Expressing disbelief from others in acknowledging the threat
Until we face it eye to eye
Emphasizing the need to confront the threat directly
Let's talk about hell
Shifting the focus to the concept of hell
Our future shines in darkest colours,
Describing a bleak future characterized by dark circumstances
You'll never change it, never will
Suggesting the permanence of the unfavorable situation
Ain't nothing left now to believe in
Expressing a lack of belief in anything positive
And so we face the overkill
Confronting an overwhelming and excessive force
Hey mother mercy leave me be
Pleading for mercy and a reprieve from the situation
Do you expect me now to cry
Questioning the expectation to show emotional vulnerability
Time will wait for no one
Stating the inevitability of time's passage
Time is short as hell
Highlighting the brevity and urgency of time
Time , Time, Time, is short as hell
Reiterating the shortness of time
All is lost, into the underworld we fade
Describing a state of complete loss leading to descent into the underworld
until our life is gone
Emphasizing the finite nature of life
count the cost,
Advising to assess the consequences
then from the darkness wiped away
Describing a removal from darkness
into the underworld we fade
Reiterating the descent into the underworld
where darkness awaits
Pointing to the anticipation of darkness in the underworld
Time will wait for no one
Restating the inevitability of time's progression
Time is short as hell, hell, hell
Reiterating the shortness and intensity of time
Time ...
Concluding with a repeated emphasis on the urgency of time
