metal church
beyond the black
The war is over The crypt we now taste In the late 1900's, there is no human race We split the planet with atomic birth Man has died We seal the urn.  Negotiations are over Troops are marching to their doom All that I see is a nightmare The smoke is blotting out the moon No, God please stop this bloody slaughter We are off the beaten track All the masses are rebelling To withstand the dark attack Will we make it back beyond the black?  Tanks are rolling in millions See them come, and now they're gone All the mountains are blackened They said it came from just one bomb No God please stop this bloody slaughter Let it all repeat -- attack All the masses are rebelling To withstand the dark attack Will we make it back beyond the black? Will we make it back beyond?  Out of the crypt with faces marred Seems the night has won We unite as one No more weapons, no more guns Look out! Food supplies are worth more than gold Turn the young into old With blinded eyes we count the cost Of everything that we lost Look out!  Watch out! Beyond the black!
