[Intro]
Don't offer us your brevity
Don't force on us complacency
The consequence is all life
Oh!
[Verse 1]
Now obsolete
On the stand
Set to trial by the mothers command
We're on our knees
In the Anthropocene
No it's never gonna stop
This world is lost
[Pre-Chorus]
The fires tear through our lands
Atrocities bestowed by man
[Chorus]
No heroes of our time
Reset - year zero
Everlasting shadows
Scorched earth, the ashes swarm
Our breath runs shallow
Befall - the storm
[Verse 2]
Rising of the seas
Toxins in the skies
The angered Terra stalks
When the light is gone
Desperation cries
Annihilation of life
In comes the night
[Breakdown]
Lambs to the slaughter!
Torrid heat sears all flesh
Ancient plagues resurrect
Famine fuels mass unrest
The human contagion
Strike down the wretched, the ruinous
Strike down the enders of all life
[Chorus]
No heroes of our time
Reset - year zero
Everlasting shadows
Scorched earth, the ashes swarm
Our breath runs shallow
Befall - the storm
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
The fires tear through our lands
Atrocities bestowed by man
[Chorus]
No heroes of our time
Reset - year zero
Everlasting shadows
Scorched earth, the ashes swarm
Our breath runs shallow
Befall - the storm
[Breakdown]
No heroes of our time
No heroes
Year zero
No heroes (of our time)
(No heroes of our time)
No heroes
Year zero
No heroes (of our time)
(No heroes of our time)
[Outro]
No heroes
(We are the Wretched)
Year zero
(We are the Ruinous)
No heroes (of our time)
(We are the ending of all life)
(No heroes of our time)
No heroes
(We are the Wretched)
Year zero
(We are the Ruinous)
No heroes (of our time)
(We are the ending of all life)
