Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
In the silence of the night, a whisper in the air
A decision made in haste, a world unprepared
In the blink of an eye, a flash of blinding light
The echoes of destruction, shattering the night
[Chorus]
Oh, the folly of man in his quest for might
Unleashing devastation in the darkest night
Seeds of destruction once sown cannot be undone
Leaving scars on earth beneath setting sun
[Instrumental Bridge, Melodic Bass]
[Verse 2]
In the aftermath of chaos, the cries of the oppressed
A world torn asunder, by the sins of the obsessed
The children of tomorrow, inherit a legacy of fear
Haunted by the shadows, of a past they hold dear
[Chorus]
Oh, the folly of man in his quest for might
Unleashing devastation in the darkest night
Seeds of destruction once sown cannot be undone
Leaving scars on earth beneath setting sun
[Instrumental Bridge, Solo Violin]
[Break]
[Bass Drop]
[Pre-Chorus]
Boom... (boom...)
[Chorus]
Oh, the folly of man in his quest for might
Unleashing devastation in the darkest night
Seeds of destruction once sown cannot be undone
Leaving scars on earth beneath setting sun
[Instrumental Bridge, Solo Violin]
[Break]
[Bass Drop]
[Pre-Chorus]
Boom (boom)
Oh, the folly of man (the folly of man)
[Chorus]
Oh, the folly of man in his quest for might
Unleashing devastation in the darkest night
Seeds of destruction once sown cannot be undone
Leaving scars on earth beneath setting sun
In ashes, hope's gleam,
Love reigns in righteous dream.
In unity, peace's gleam,
Redemption ends pain's extreme.
[Big Finish]
(the folly of man)
[Bridge]
Yet in the ashes of despair, a glimmer of hope remains
For in the hearts of the righteous, love forever reigns
In the unity of nations, and the promise of peace
We find redemption, and our sorrows cease
[Outro]
(the folly of man)
